Customized 3D printed helmet in the treatment of metopic craniosynostosis in a 7-month-old infant, a case report

This case report illustrates the utilization of 3D printing technology in the treatment of metopic craniosynostosis. 3D printed helmets may offer an appropriate option for treating selective infants with metopic craniosynostosis. Thus, would introduce the 3D helmet as a following intervention for such cases after the endoscopy-assisted craniotomy surgical intervention. Further studies with a higher number of cases are compulsory to assess the effectiveness of treating metopic craniosynostosis by 3D printed helmets instead of molding helmets.
