Cranioplasty

Cranioplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring the integrity of the skull after injury or a birth defect. The skull is one of the most complex and important structures of the human body, which provides protection to the brain and regulates intracranial pressure. Violation of the integrity of the skull can lead to serious consequences, such as disruption of brain function, loss of vision and hearing, as well as the risk of developing infection and inflammatory processes.

Cranioplasty may be necessary for the following diseases and injuries:

- traumatic brain injuries, including head impacts, bruises and fractures of the skull; - hydrocephalus (Aicardi syndrome), in which the normal flow of cerebrospinal fluid is disrupted, which can lead to impaired cognitive function, headaches and changes in behavior; - pinched blood vessels, cerebral nerves and cerebral hemorrhage due to injuries or birth defects; - cranial abnormalities such as scoliosis, plagiocephaly, cuneiform or craniosynostosis, which may interfere with normal cranial functions and
