Usefulness of scalp expansion for cranioplasty in a case with postinfection large calvarial defect: a case report
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundWe frequently experience difficulty in scalp adaptation on cranioplastic surgery, particularly after wound infection, because of scalp atrophy, poor nutritional condition, and tense suture.Case DescriptionWe report our valuable experience of scalp expansion being effective for cranioplastic surgery due to a postinfection large calvarial defect after the removal of a convexity meningioma.ConclusionsIf there is some anxiety about scalp adaptation preoperatively, it may be wise to perform a 2-stage cranioplasty, including tissue expansion with a scalp expander, instead of a hasty 1-stage cranioplasty.
