Pterional Implant

pterional

The Pterional Implant is used to correct temporal hollowing defects in patients who have had temporalis muscle atrophy due to surgical interventions through a pterional approach to the brain. The implant is placed deep to the temporalis when closing and can be secured with screw fixation to the surrounding temporal bone. Available in one size and left and right orientation, the Pterional Implant is smaller than the BENDBLOCK TF2 Implant, although similar in design.
