How long does cranial repair surgery take?

How long does cranial repair surgery take? Cranial repair surgery is a routine neurosurgical procedure that has evolved over decades of history and has now become well established. The main purpose of the surgery is to repair the defective skull caused by debridement flap decompression and craniotomy with repair material. Generally, 2-3 months after the skull defect is the best time for repair. Through the cranial repair surgery, the defective area can be covered by repair, and cosmetic effect can also be achieved, which can improve the patient’s quality of life and safeguard the patient’s physical health. How many hours does cranial repair surgery take? The exact duration of cranial repair surgery depends on the qualifications of the hospital chosen, the experience of the specialist and the type of repair surgery. It is usually completed in 1-2 hours. At present, according to the surgical implant materials and surgical methods, clinically there are mainly traditional titanium mesh cranial bone repair surgery and new polyether ether ketone peek material cranial bone repair plastic surgery; traditional titanium mesh cranial bone repair surgery, due to the implantation of the titanium mesh metal material, so there are still some problems, for example, the patient often occurs postoperative infections, rejections, deformation and collapse and other problems, in addition to the surgical methods of the traditional titanium mesh cranial bone repair surgery using In addition, the traditional titanium mesh cranial repair uses the overlay repair method, which is very easy to cause abrasion of the scalp, resulting in titanium mesh exposure and other problems. Therefore, it is best to choose polyetheretherketone material for repair. Polyether ether ketone (peek) material cranial bone repair plastic surgery, several years ago, Europe and the United States have begun to use, so far, there have been more than 10 years of clinical experience summarized, can be very good to avoid titanium mesh cranial bone repair all kinds of problems that exist. Surgery using polyether ether ketone as cranial bone repair implant material, then, can effectively avoid the traditional titanium metal caused by allergies and other problems; this material is in full compliance with the national YY/T0660-2008 surgical implant industry standards, in addition, the polyether ether ketone peek material cranial bone repair and plastic surgery in the surgery using embedded repair, smooth articulation, high degree of comfort, and effectively avoid wear and tear of the skin, material exposure and other problems. In addition, our neurosurgery department, after years of clinical summarization, adopts unique material thickness and mesh aperture design in three-dimensional design as well as unique intra-operative tissue separation and reset technology, which effectively avoids temporalis muscle atrophy and ensures the activity of all tissues, and can effectively guarantee the overall beauty of the postoperative appearance.
