“…Nowadays, the production of such implants is normally done by milling based on patient-specific computer tomography data. [1][2][3][4] In the recent past, the possibilities of additive manufacturing (AM) like complexity for free or material efficiency has led to printed implants as well. Hereby, selective laser sintering (SLS) is used as standard production technology.…”

This study evaluates the feasibility and suitability of polypropylene (PP) implants produced by Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) for the substitution of damaged cranial bone material from the polymerengineering point of view. The establishing of imaging methods, suitable printing material preparations, best printing practice regarding PP, and a first testing approach of the mechanical implant performance are addressed. Results indicate that PP implants are accurately printable and seem to be mechanical usable for cranial bone substitution. Further investigations concerning impact behavior and medical applicability will be conducted.
