Abstract
AbstractIn two dogs, skull defects were closed with a patient-specific implant created by additive manufacturing after excision of tumours of the skull. Both dogs presented with a space-occupying mass in which excisional surgery without the use of implants would have resulted in incomplete closure due to extensive bone defects of the skull. The aim of the present case report is to describe the use of individualized three-dimensional-printed titanium implants for skull reconstruction following oncological surgery. The reconstructive implant-based surgeries performed in these patients were feasible without complications.
