Life of young Dutch woman is saved with 3D printed skull |
|
A 22-year-old Dutch woman with a life-threatening brain disorder was recently given a whole new cranium, thanks to the help of the innovative technology. Doctors at Utrecht Medical Center in the Netherlands used a 3D printer to build a plastic prosthetic bone for what they said was the first full-skull transplant. The surgery was performed in December, lasting 23 hours. The news program of the French second channel broadcasts a reportage and needs some reactions from the Dutch and some general views.
