To date, there is little consensus on the standard-of-care for graft materials used in such a procedure. Graft materials must have sufficient mechanical strength to protect the underlying brain as well as the ability to integrate and support new bone growth. Also, the ideal graft material should be individually customized to the contours of the defect to ensure a suitable aesthetic outcome for the patient. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/147126 | ISSN: | 1010-5182 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jcms.2018.11.013 | Schools: | School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) |
