Abstract
Cranioplasty is a high-risk procedure in some cases. Sinking skin flap syndrome and vacuum suction drain may be the main risks of a postoperative venous congestion and stasis, which may result in diffuse cerebral swelling. Once the computed tomography scan shows malignant cerebral swelling, the patient is expected to have a poor prognosis.
