Journal of Neurosurgery, 1965
The substances most commonly used in the repair of defects of the skull are autogenous bone, sheet tantalum, and plastics of various kinds. All have certain disadvantages. Bone, whether from rib or iliac crest, is difficult to shape into the proper contours; moreover, even autogenous bone grafts sometimes fail to unite, and may then be absorbed ...

Neurosurgery, 1979
abstract A total of 491 cranioplasties performed in a population of 1030 cases of penetrating head injury are reviewed. The morbidity rate was 5.5%, and the mortality rate was 0.2%. The clinical criteria of improving cosmetic defects and restoring craniocerebral protection are established, based on the location and size of the skull ...

Practical variations of cranioplasty
The American Journal of Surgery, 1964Abstract Indications for the repair of skull defects may be brain protection, cosmetic and psychologic. As there is no panacea for all skull deformities the best method must be determined for each case depending on the size and type of defect as well as the age and health of the patient.

Fronto-orbital deformities secondary to trauma, infection, or surgery create a difficult problem for the reconstructive surgeon. The location of the deformity is particularly critical because it involves the most visible part of the face. Since the skull is rarely able to produce bony regeneration over large areas, numerous alloplastic materials have ...
