Mans new best friend - his 3D printer

10/03/13


Man who lost half his skull in lawnmower accident has had it replaced - by a 3D printer implant




  • Michal Lesiow found in a ditch his skull shattered, full of mud and grass
  • Doctors at Lodz hospital, Poland, took a 3D scan of his head 
  • They then built a polypropylene implant using a state-of-the-art 3D printer
  • Mr Lesiow says he has a cracking headache but is grateful to be alive
