摘要: Irregular craniofacial bone defects caused by craniofacial fractures always result in craniofacial bone  and contour asymmetry and should therefore be reconstructed. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is an ideal substitute  for autologous bone grafts and has been widely used in craniofacial bone defect reconstruction. The precise design  of custom-made PEEK implants is particularly important to optimise reconstruction. Herein, the workflow and  principles for the design and manufacture of PEEK implants are summarised, and a protocol for the precise design  of an irregular craniofacial bone defect PEEK implant is presented. According to the method and principles, the  design flow was efficient and could be standardised, and design errors could be avoided as much as possible.
