Cranial repair is now a more mature technique and usually carries little surgical risk, but there are still risks of anesthesia, vascular damage, and nerve damage during the surgery.
Cranial bone repair is a relatively easy operation in neurosurgery, which is less difficult to perform, does not directly contact brain tissue, and rarely causes damage to brain tissue. However, there are still risks such as anesthesia and vascular and nerve injuries, so intraoperative operations need to be performed delicately to separate blood vessels and nerves so as not to cause damage and increase the risk of surgery.
When cranial defects are caused by various diseases, cranial repair should be performed as early as possible, provided that the primary disease has recovered well. Early cranial repair can help patients restore normal intracranial blood flow and improve their prognosis.
