Patients were divided into the three-dimensional cranioplasty(3-DC, n=26) and autologous bone cranioplasty (AC, n=24) groups. Demographics, aneurysm characteristics, surgical parameters, morphometric analysis of defect coverage, complications, and functional outcomes assessed by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) were compared.Results: A total of 54 hemispheres underwent cranioplasty. Compared with AC, the 3-DC group had larger defects but achieved higher coverage (96.7% vs. 93.4%, p=0.044) and smaller residual defects (338.7\u00b1274.2 mm\u00b2 vs. 528.5\u00b1331.3 mm\u00b2, p=0.049). Complication rates were lower in 3-DC (9 cases) than AC (15 cases, p=0.0994). Wound dehiscence and fluid collection were more frequent with 3-DC, while bone flap resorption and epidural abscess occurred only with AC. Revision surgery was required in six patients, five initially treated with autologous bone. Neurological outcomes (mRS) were maintained or improved in both groups.Conclusions: In aSAH patients undergoing cranioplasty after DC, customized 3-D printed implants achieved significantly better anatomical restoration and showed a numerical trend toward fewer complications compared with autologous bone. While AC remains feasible, its risks of resorption and infection often necessitate revision. 3-D printed implants may be considered a reasonable alternative, particularly in aSAH patients at higher risk of complications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7461\/jcen.2025.e2025.09.003","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,31]],"date-time":"2025-10-31T08:31:22Z","timestamp":1761899482000},"page":"35-48","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.7461\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Outcomes
