Is the peek material strong enough to repair the skull?

Cranial repair is a relatively routine procedure in neurosurgery, and the technique is well established. At present, in cranial bone repair, the selection of appropriate repair materials is very important. Good repair material can achieve more ideal repair effect, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications; and if the repair material is not selected properly, it may produce a variety of problems, many patients in the current choice of material for selection, there are titanium mesh material and peek material. Some patients ask if the peek material is strong enough to repair the skull. PEEK material is a new type of special polymer material, the name is polyether ether ketone, its texture is very hard, low density, high strength, good protective performance. And PEEK material properties are very excellent, histocompatibility, elasticity, heat conduction, hardness, stability, radiation transmissibility and other aspects of the performance and autologous cranial bone performance is comparable to the titanium mesh can be effectively avoided by the various problems that may arise, to become the new trend of cranial bone repair materials. Warm tips: through the above introduction peek material repair skull solid detailed introduction, I hope to help you. It is recommended that patients go to the regular hospital as soon as possible to take the appropriate repair material, repair as soon as possible, and recover as soon as possible.
