Abstract Cranioplasty is a reconstructive procedure used to restore skull configuration. Optimal skull reconstruction is a challenge for neurosurgeons, and the strategy used to achieve the best result remains a topic of debate. The most common causes leading to calvarial skull defects include: depressed fractures of the skull, decompressive craniectomies (DC), tumor infiltration of calvarial bones, congenital deformities and inflammatory lesions. Many types of materials are allowed. The subject of this study is to compare the outcome of two different techniques in reconstruction of calvarial skull defects by using titanium mesh versus hand-made bone cement implants |
