Study of 3D-printed skull implants for bone loss repair
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a custom-made, 3D-printed skull implant to repair missing bone in the head (cranioplasty). It may help people who have a bone defect larger than 1 cm and are in generally good health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a missing piece of skull bone larger than 1 cm.
- You are awake and responsive (Glasgow Coma Scale score of 9 or higher).
- You are not currently having an infection at the surgery site or anywhere in your body.
- You have not had brain radiation or chemotherapy in the last 6 months, and none planned in the next 12 weeks.
