An unconscious patient with an extra-dural haematoma may not survive transfer to a neurosurgical centre for definitive care. This article describes a simple approach to a decompressive craniotomy which may be life-saving in these patients when a neurosurgeon is not available.

Awake craniotomy has become an increasingly frequent procedure. In this paper, the principles of its anaesthetic management are reviewed. The means allowing achievement of anaesthetic objectives are described, with emphasis on points that determine success of the procedure. A careful and adequate selection and preparation of patients are mandatory, and

Midline Suboccipital Osteoplastic Craniotomy - ‘Cobra Craniotomy'
Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2012<b><i>Background:</i></b> Midline suboccipital craniotomy has been proposed as an alternative to conventional craniectomy for removal of posterior fossa tumors. <b><i>Method:</i></b> We describe a modified technique for midline suboccipital osteoplastic craniotomy based on the atlantooccipital membrane ...

The incidence of craniotomy infections, usually less than 5%, is dependent on many factors, such as how the information is collected and how the percentage is calculated. Because these factors may vary from report to report, incidence figures should be read with skepticism. It is difficult to prove that a given factor contributes to infection.

Computed tomography-based stereotactic biopsy procedures for diagnosing intracranial tumors are common today. In addition, point stereotaxis is used to center a craniotomy over a superficial lesion or to find a deep one. Technical innovations have improved performance of these operations. The author describes the instrumentation and current methodology

Abstract This chapter discusses postcraniotomy headache (PCH), a common yet frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated occurrence, with up to 30% of patients experiencing persistent headache after surgery. The chapter identifies risk factors for the development of acute and persistent PCH and describes mechanisms for its development ...

Osteoplastic Pterional Craniotomy
Southern Medical Journal, 1989We describe a new method for small frontotemporal craniotomies. Adequate exposure is obtained. Sparing of the trunk of the frontotemporal branch of the facial nerve as it passes near the eyebrow preserves forehead mimetic function, and maintenance of the blood supply to the bone flap helps to prevent resorption.

Object The primary aim of this study was to establish standard sites for bur holes that maintain constant anatomical relationships with the skull base and neural structures and can serve as the basal aspect of supratentorial temporooccipital craniotomies.
