Reconstruction of burr hole by using autologous button-shaped graft harvested from inner table of craniotomy flap: Technique and clinical result
Özet
Patients who underwent craniotomy occasionally complain about the postoperative cosmetic appearance at the site of burr holes on the scalp. This problem occurs as a result of depletion of the skin into the unreconstructed burr holes. Some materials have been developed for reconstruction of craniotomy burr holes. To prevent the postoperative cosmetic deformity, the authors developed a button-shaped autologous bone graft harvested from the inner table of craniotomy flap. Clinical application of this method is described.
