Abstract：
:Cranioplasty is a challenge to neurosurgeons, especially considering protection of intracranial contents. In recent years, material choice for cranioplasty is still controversial, which brings complexity to this seemingly straightforward procedure. PEEK, a tough, rigid, biocompatible material, has been used more recently in cranioplasty to provide better protection. The aim of this review is to summarize the outcome of research conducted on the material for cranioplasty applications. We also reviewed the comparison of PEEK with several common materials in previous articles. This is also the most complete data review article at present. In addition, the combination of nano-materials and PEEK is also a hotspot of research, so we have made a careful review of this aspect. We also summarized our own experience, telling about the future prospects of PEEK in the field of clinical cranioplasty should be highlighted. Improving the bioactivity, porosity, thinning, biocompatibility, antibacterial ability, integration and cost reduction of PEEK implants without affecting their mechanical properties is a major challenge.
