The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a 3D bone scaffold in relation to a scaffold formed by PCL + β-TCP (polycaprolactone and beta-tricalcium phosphate), compared to the use of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) acrylic cement for bone regeneration in patients undergoing cranioplasty in the city of Valdivia, Chile, between the years 2024-2025. The main beneficiaries will be patients, users of the public or private health system, who require bone regeneration. The intermediate beneficiaries are the health team: doctors specialized in surgery and orthopedics, dedicated in their professional work to bone reconstruction and regeneration.
