Titanium cranioplasty.
The technique of repairing defects of the skull with titanium is described. The skull contour can be accurately reproduced. The technique is simpler than wiring or suturing methods. The material is inert, radiolucent, and rigid.
متن کاملTitanium cranioplasty in children and adolescents.
Full thickness calvarial defects present considerable challenges to reconstructive surgeons. In paediatric cases, the use of biomaterials as a substrate for cranioplasty rather than autologous bone is controversial. Alloplastic cranioplasty in adults is supported by several large case series however long term outcome of biomaterial use in paediatric cases is limited. Retrospective seven year an...
متن کاملThe Influence of Host Bone Substrate in Titanium Mesh Cranioplasty
Reconstructive surgery of bone defects in the calvarium makes use of a multitude of biological and artificial materials. Due to the increased number of such medical casuistry in the recent years, a special attention was dedicated to the biocompatibility and osteointegrative properties of various types of biomaterials. Titanium emerged to be a promising cranioplasty material due to its excellent...
متن کاملFeasibility of the custom-made titanium cranioplasty CRANIOTOP®
BACKGROUND With decompressive craniectomy for ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and skull-infiltrating tumors, the need for cranioplasty has increased. Different materials for custom-made cranioplasties have been evaluated, but a gold standard could not yet be established. We report our experience with the new custom-made titanium CRANIOTOP(®)cranioplasty (CL Instruments, Germany). MET...
متن کاملRestoring the failed cranioplasty: nonanatomical titanium mesh with perforator flap.
The calvaria is covered by a thin, well-vascularized soft-tissue envelope, providing a rich environment for a variety of local and regional flaps.1 Composite cranial vault restoration aims to protect the brain and restore cranial form. Primary reconstructions result in good outcomes, provided there is adequate quality and quantity of soft tissue. The complexity also increases with the size and ...
