PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Conventional cranioplasty methods, which have been used by neurosurgeons for more than 100 years, involve peeling back all five layers of the scalp to place the bone remnant or custom implant into the proper cranial location.

Detailed explanation-2: -The first primitive cranioplasty procedures date back to 7000 bc and used metal and gourds to repair cranial defects. Cranioplasty was first documented by Fallopius who described repair using gold plates; the first bone graft was documented by van Meekeren.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meekeren (1668) documented the first successful cranioplasty by using a canine cranial bone graft to repair a human calvarial defect.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cranioplasty is the surgical repair of skull fractures or deformities. These fractures and deformities can happen as the result of a neurosurgical operation that required access to the brain, a traumatic accident, or a birth defect. Our team offers surgical treatment for complex problems of the skull.
