Causes of Skull Defects

Patients with cranial defects need cranial repair because it affects the aesthetics, and it also impairs the cerebrospinal fluid circulation, which is very harmful to the organism. What are the causes of craniosynostosis? In daily life but there are various dangerous factors that may cause damage to the skull, such as car accidents, such as traffic accidents, such as brain surgery that has to be performed due to craniosynostosis, etc., it may cause cranial defects. This will expose the brain to external danger, destroy the stable intracranial environment, cause blood circulation and cerebral crest fluid circulation disorders, and affect the operation of various neurological functions, which is very harmful to the organism, sometimes even fatal. Therefore, once a cranial defect occurs, cranial repair surgery is needed in a timely manner. What is the purpose of cranial repair? Cranial repair surgery polyetheretherketone cranial repair, the brain is the command of the human body, which governs all the life activities of the body. Of course, the normal functioning of the brain is also inseparable from various peripheral supports, such as the support and protection of the brain by the skull from external aggressions, providing a safe, closed and stable intracranial operating environment. What materials are available for cranial repair? In cranial repair surgery, the choice of repair material is quite important. There are many clinical cases where improper selection of cranial repair materials resulted in failure of repair surgery or various adverse reactions after surgery. For example, the titanium mesh material commonly used in clinical practice is not ideal. Postoperative rejection may occur, postoperative infection may occur, scalp tissue may be destroyed, titanium mesh may be exposed, and the mesh may have to be removed, and the repair may fail. In addition, titanium mesh is not a material for cranial repair because of its poor heat insulation, difficulty in shaping, and interference with nuclear magnetic CT examination. Currently, there is a superior cranial repair material called polyether ether ketone, also known as PEEK. This PEEK cranial repair can effectively avoid all of these problems and achieve a very satisfactory repair result. The advantages of PEEK materials: PEEK materials have unparalleled advantages over traditional common materials (such as titanium mesh materials commonly used in clinical practice): 1, good biocompatibility, no foreign body reaction; 2, three-dimensional reconstruction, 3D printing, perfect shaping; 3, radiolucent, will not affect the postoperative CT MRI and other imaging; 4, embedded repair, in the bone window completely fit, articulation The cranial bone repair surgery features/repair time The cranial bone repair is because we need to repair the cranial bone after three to six months, no matter it is a trauma or a rescue, when the cranial bone is removed. In this way, a cosmetic effect is achieved in terms of appearance. From the physiological point of view, it is a physiological, a complete cranial repair of the human body. Of course, the current peek material is a very good one. Because it is closer to the skull, the whole material is very similar to the skull, so it can reduce rejection and achieve a complete skull repair. It also avoids infection and highlights the skin’s surface.
