Study Arms (1)

Cohort 1

Participants will receive a Stryker PEEK Customized Implant

Device: Stryker's PEEK Customized Implant

Interventions

The PEEK Customized Implants will be used in this patient cohort for augmentation and/or restoration of bony and/or soft tissue deformities in the cranial and craniofacial skeleton (orbital rim, zygoma, and adjacent bone); including but not limited to, the correction and prevention of persistent temporal hollowing (PTH).

Eligibility Criteria

Age42 Months+

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with cranial and craniofacial defects requiring augmentation and/or restoration, e.g. following tumor resection, trauma, vascular conditions, or stroke requiring craniectomy, due to previously failed cranioplasty, or bone flap resorption.

You may qualify if:

  • Subject is eligible for a PEEK customized implant as per routine clinical practice.
  • Subject is 12 years of age or older (Europe only).
  • Subject is 3.5 years of age or older (USA only).
  • Adult subjects able to give consent.
  • Subjects under the age of 18 will have a legal representative or parents (France - both parents must sign) to provide informed consent.
  • Subjects who are unable to give consent themselves but have a legally authorized representative that may consent on their behalf.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject has an active systemic or local infection.
  • Subject has known allergy to plastic or polymers and/or known sensitivity to foreign bodies.
  • Comprised bone due to poor blood supply, disease, infection or prior implantation, which would not allow adequate support or fixation of the implant.
  • Mental or neuromuscular disorder which could create an unacceptable risk of implant instability or implant fixation failure, or complications in postoperative care.
  • Knowingly pregnant or nursing women.
  • Concomitant participation in other clinical trials related to cranioplasty.
  • Subject who has an expected survival rate of less than 2 years, in the opinion of the investigator who takes consent.
