Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of customized skull implants made of polyetheretheretherketone by three-dimensional printing in patients undergoing cranioplasty. The main question it aims to answer is:

• Are customized skull implants made of polyetheretheretherketone using 3D printing effective and safe in patients undergoing cranioplasty?

Participants will:

* The patient will be submitted to cranioplasty.
* The patient will answer the neurological scales at each visit.
* Keep a diary of their symptoms and concomitant medications
* The study will be divided into 5 visits to the center, the surgical intervention and 3 telephone calls where patients will be followed up.

Conditions

  • Cranial Defects

Interventions

PROCEDURE

cranioplasty

In this pivotal study of a medical device, patients with bone loss undergo a computed tomography scan, which is used to create a three-dimensional model of the lesion. After validation, the model is printed using PEEK material, and subsequently, the skull is repaired through cranial reconstruction (cranioplasty).
