A 9-year old Dachshund became the beneficiary of a miracle in modern veterinary medicine when she received a custom made titanium skull courtesy of 3D printing technology. Patches had a bump on her head for years, prompting her guardians to call her their little unicorn. When that lump began to grow aggressively, it went from a charming feature to a life-threatening medical condition. In order to take out the cancer, about 70 percent of her skull had to be removed.
