Cranioplasty Following Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: Role in Neurorecovery

Baris Ozoner

Summary: Cranioplasty has the potential to enhance neurological recovery in severe traumatic brain injury patients by improving brain perfusion and restoring regular cerebrospinal fluid dynamics. Early cranioplasty and the use of both autologous and exogenous materials are likely beneficial for neurological recovery. Recent findings suggest the enhancing effect of cranioplasty on neurological recovery in TBI patients.

New-onset seizures after cranioplasty-a different view on a putatively frequently observed phenomenon

Dorian Hirschmann et al.

Summary: New-onset seizures after cranioplasty may be a consequence of the initial condition leading to decompressive hemicraniectomy rather than of cranioplasty itself. The timing of follow-up appears to be a major factor in detecting new-onset seizures.

Complications following titanium cranioplasty compared with nontitanium implants cranioplasty: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Sihan Zhu et al.

Summary: Titanium cranioplasty was associated with a significant decrease in overall complications rate, hematoma rate, and imprecise fitting rate compared to non-titanium materials, but it also increased the risk of implant exposure.

Predictive Factors of Surgical Site Infection Following Cranioplasty: A Study Including 3D Printed Implants

Myung Ji Kim et al.

Summary: This study investigated predictive factors for surgical site infection (SSI) following cranioplasty, revealing that the presence of fluid collection on CT scan after cranioplasty was significantly associated with the occurrence of SSI. Further research with long-term follow-up and large-scale prospective studies are needed to confirm these conclusions.
