“A miracle’: Boy (10) receives skull implant from 3D printer after accident. Felix is the first child in the world to have a 3D implant made by a clinic inserted into his skull.
The boy was seriously injured in a forestry accident. Since September 2023, 24 adults in Salzburg have received such an implant, but never a child. “It doesn’t feel any different than before,” Felix said of his prosthesis.
