Cranioplasty is not only performed for cosmetic reasons but also for physiological requirements to balance the cerebral hemodynamics and to protect the brain from external traumas. Methyl methacrylate is one of the most preferred materials for cranioplasty. It is usually prepared out of the surgical site and therefore modelling of the cranioplasty material to fit the bone defect is sometimes di...

A clear clinicopathological association exists in the neurovascular relationship. In general, pain in the third division of the trigeminal nerve is caused by rostral compression, pain in the second division is caused by medial or m...

متن کاملExposure of Titanium Mesh after Cranioplasty for Microvascular Decompression Surgery: Two Case Reports
Two cases of exposed titanium mesh occurred after implantation for cranioplasty after repeated procedures for microvascular decompression (MVD). Case 1 was a 62-year-old female who underwent MVD for left hemifacial spasm followed by repair of cerebrospinal fluid leak after the surgery, and Case 2 was a 75-year-old female who underwent MVD twice for right trigeminal neuralgia. Both patients visi...
