Print missing around 3mm off the top?

I just tried printing another revision of a model I made in Fusion 360 and my Prusa Mini missed off 3mm~ of the top of this model:

 

 

The slicer didn't flag any issues:

Here it is alongside the previous revision - I was surprised there was an issue as I only changed the indents along the side of the bottom layer:

There wasn't any error messages when I collected the print from the Prusa Mini - the display said it had finished printing 100% and there is still plenty of filament left in the spool. 😥

So sorry, please ignore this..! On closer inspection there was a kink that had formed in the filament spool which was stopping the extruder from being able to draw more filament from the spool, caused a nasty jam that took some time to fix -
