PEEK skull material price, can peek skull material be covered by medical insurance

When it comes to skull repair surgery, everyone is more concerned about the cost of skull repair surgery. This fee may be higher. About more than 100,000.

Depending on the restoration material, the cost varies. For example, the cost of titanium mesh materials that are commonly used now is slightly lower, and the team of Professor Jin Yongjian, director of cerebrovascular neurosurgery, usually uses a more advanced repair material polyetheretherketone, also known as PEEK material, PEEK material has the advantages that general titanium mesh materials do not have, this material is three-dimensional, can completely restore the anatomy of the skull, and this PEEK material is bionic bone, which can be highly integrated with the autologous skull, and in elasticity, heat conduction, hardness, The stability and other aspects are comparable to the performance of the autologous skull, especially for pediatric patients, he can better adapt to the growth and development of the autologous skull.

Hello: PEEK is used for skull materials that belong to implantable grade PEEK, and it needs to be machined into PEEK skull with implantable grade PEEK profiles, and the raw material is more than 10,000 kg.

At present, the Department of Trauma and Neurosurgery of the Civil Aviation General Hospital has carried out PEEK skull repair for hundreds of patients, and the postoperative follow-up effect is good, and there is no rejection, so patients with conditions should still choose PEKK materials for repair. No. 1 Gaojingjia in Chaoyang Road in Beijing.

In clinical practice, skull defect is a very common disease, and many patients in life have severe skull defects due to traffic accidents, falling objects or some cranial diseases after craniotomy. It is certain that the image of the skull defect will be destroyed, and more importantly, the skull defect will induce a series of neurological problems, which is very harmful, so it is generally necessary to do skull repair surgery as soon as possible.

When it comes to skull repair surgery, there are two things that patients need to pay attention to, one is to choose a good hospital and experienced experts to do it, and the other is to choose a truly ideal skull base repair material. At present, the most widely used should be titanium mesh materials, like the Pubo Wu Jiaotong Hospital in many places, which generally uses titanium mesh materials for surgery. Although the titanium mesh material has a certain degree of progress, there are also many defects, such as infection, rejection, scalp wear and exposure, etc.

There are many problems and defects in titanium mesh materials, and if you want to obtain a better cranial repair effect, it is recommended to choose a new type of polyetheretherketone PEEK material. This is a very safe polymer material, its properties are very excellent, comparable to the human skull, make up for the various disadvantages of titanium mesh materials, and become an ideal material for skull repair surgery.

Many patients ask the question of whether PEEK materials can be reimbursed, which depends on the local medical insurance policy. As a valuable medical material, PEEK material is included in the scope of medical insurance reimbursement and payment, and can be reimbursed for a certain proportion. It is recommended that patients undergo skull repair surgery as soon as possible**.

Nowadays, most hospitals perform skull repair surgery on patients, generally using titanium mesh materials.

Titanium mesh is already relatively advanced. However, there are still some problems with titanium mesh materials. For example, the patient is sensitive to cold and heat reactions after surgery, has local chronic pain, and has more subcutaneous effusion; After the repair operation, it affects the patient's acceptance of CT, MRI and other medical examinations;

The repair material used by Professor Kim Yongjian in the skull repair surgery is the most advanced PEEK material used at present.

It can completely restore the anatomical structure of the skull, and this PEEK material is bionic bone, which can be highly integrated with the autologous skull, and is comparable to the performance of the autologous skull in terms of elasticity, heat conduction, hardness, stability, etc., especially for pediatric patients, and can better adapt to the growth and development of the autologous skull.

PEEK skull repair is very expensive, generally in hundreds of thousands to millions of or so, depending on the charging standards of each hospital and the amount of materials needed, PEEK can use three-dimensional printing technology to design defective skulls for patients, the advantage of this material over titanium alloy materials is that it can not produce CT and MRI artifacts, and this material is relatively lightweight, and the density is relatively small compared to titanium alloy.

First of all, not all grades of PEEK are suitable for cranial repair, and they must be implantable PEEK.

Implantable-grade PEEK has better biocompatibility, closer to human bone density, and lighter weight than traditional titanium alloys.

At present, PEEK is used for skull repair, mainly using 3D printing molding or CNC molding, for some complex bone shapes, 3D promise is more advantageous.

However, when choosing, it is necessary to consider the qualifications of the manufacturer and the quality of the material. PEEK is a polymer material, and the quality control requirements are higher than that of metal materials such as titanium alloys.

Summary.

** on very cheap. The material is expensive because it is hyped up.

The development of cranial repair surgery is the continuous advancement of surgical technology and the continuous evolution of skull repair materials. In modern medicine, skull repair surgery has been a routine operation in neurosurgery, and the surgical technology has been very mature, and the main thing that restricts the repair effect is the skull repair material. In the past, flannel, animal bone, metal sheets, plexiglass, light apatite, calcium phosphate bone cement, etc. have been used, and there are many problems, which have gradually faded out of the medical stage.

At present, the widely used titanium mesh materials are not very perfect, and infections and complications occur from time to time.

At present, the latest polyetheretherketone PEEK material is a very ideal skull repair material, so what are the advantages of this artificial skull PEEK? After a large number of clinical practices, Professor Nao Mu Cangshan of the Aviation General Hospital has proved that this PEEK material is indeed very excellent for skull repair, because of the good biocompatibility of the material, the ability to complex shaping, excellent mechanical properties, good protective performance, and high postoperative comfort, it is gradually becoming the latest trend of skull repair materials.
