Cranial iD™ Pterional PLUS

Specialties:

Closure

Description:

Pterional PLUS is the direct result of a collaboration effort with a leading craniofacial surgeon. Pterional PLUS uses the design process and materials already utilized for customized cranial implants that are designed to enhance the post operative results over time. Repeat procedures using our Pterional PLUS implant experienced no persistent temporal hollowing (PTH).[1] Therefore, patients who receive a Pterional PLUS implant may not require a revision surgery to correct PTH; surgeons may be more efficient, and healthcare could be more cost-effective.[2]

Features and benefits:

  • Reconstruction for both bony and soft tissues[3]
  • Design session utilizes a patented dynamic algorithm, allowing the designer to augment and adjust the implant based on the surgeon’s requests
  • Available in the material of your choice, including MEDPOR and PEEK, to accommodate the preferred surgical application
