If rejection occurs after cranial repair surgery, can the titanium plate be removed?

The skull plays a very important role in the human body, the skull is the protective barrier of the brain, the skull intact intracranial tissues in order to operate and work normally. However, when an accident occurs that people can’t predict, the skull is damaged and a piece of it is missing. At this time, the intracranial pressure and the intracranial environment have changed, so it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to have a skull repair surgery. Many people may think that cranial repair surgery is risky, so they are hesitant to undergo the surgery, or even have the illusion that the skull can grow back on its own. However, in fact, the missing skull will not grow back on its own, and the longer the defect lasts, the greater the impact on the health of the patient. In neurosurgery, cranial repair surgery is a routine procedure that is highly safe, and patients should believe in science. Can the titanium plate be removed if there is rejection after cranial repair surgery? At present, many local hospitals can also do cranial bone repair surgery, but there are some differences in the use of materials, and there may also be differences in technology. Nowadays, the more commonly used material is titanium mesh, the use of this material has improved a lot compared to the past, but there are still some disadvantages. Some patients experience infection, rejection, or even exposure of the mesh after the mesh repair surgery, which requires surgical removal of the mesh and implantation of a more optimal repair material. Currently, our team utilizes a safer and more advanced polymer material, namely PEEK, which is harder than titanium mesh material, and has a high level of comfort and excellent postoperative results. Moreover, the team is constantly improving and upgrading the technology and optimizing the design of the material, and has successfully introduced the concept of cosmetic plastic surgery to achieve better results, which has been unanimously praised by the majority of consumers and their families.
