Background and Aim: Bilateral sacroiliac joint luxation, a condition primarily observed in cats, can significantly impact their quality of life. This study aimed to compare a control with three distinct fixation methods to identify the most robust fixation method capable of withstanding significant tensile stress. Materials and Methods: Twenty pelvic bone models of cats were made using a 3D printer with polylactic acid plastic. Each model was assembled by cutting the sacroiliac joints and pelvic girdle symphysis with a handsaw, then bonded with cyanoacrylate glue. 3D feline pelvic bone models were categorized into four significant groups, each consisting of five models. The study discovered that the three groups used distinct fixation methods: Two lag screws (DS), K-wires at the ilium wing and sacroiliac joints (TK), and K-wires at the sacroiliac joints (DK). The final group, not fixed, was the control. Results: The results were characterized further through a mechanical compression force test using a universal testing machine. The most robust method at the sacroiliac joints, the DK technique, sustained a maximum force of up to 183.86 N while maintaining the correct bone alignment. The fixation method is more accessible and faster to implement in comparison to the DS method. Conclusion: The DK group exhibited the greatest maximum load capacity among all groups. Sacroiliac joint luxation treatment can effectively be addressed using the K-wires fixation method. However, the DK need space of sacral body same as DS for fixation. Further clinical study should be performed. Keywords: 3D-printed model, biomechanical testing, cats, sacroiliac joint luxation.
