Question

What materials are used for pediatric skull repair?

Answer

For pediatric skull repair, since children have thinner scalp and skull, and are in the stage of development, the recommendations for surgical materials are more strict. It is suggested to use high-stability PEEK materials as the repair material for pediatric skull defects, as these materials can better restore the growth and development of the natural skull. Now, after skull repair, the previous skull defect is completely unnoticeable. Moreover, it also facilitates monitoring the complete recovery after surgery, avoiding headaches and discomfort caused by swelling and shrinkage.
