Titanium Mesh Versus Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in Cranioplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Complications and Clinical Outcomes

2026-03-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Cranioplasty following decompressive craniectomy can be performed using various implant materials, with titanium and polyetheretherketone (PEEK) being the most commonly used synthetic options. However, their comparative safety and clinical performance remain debated. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare titanium-based cranioplasty with PEEK and other synthetic or autologou...
