The use of titanium craniofacial plates and the principles of rigid fixation have been adapted to cranial flap replacement. The technique has been in use for more than 18 months with no complications related to the technique or implant. The advantages of using titanium screws and plates to achieve superior healing and cosmesis, as well as the reduction of postoperative artifacts on magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomographic scans, are of benefit to neurosurgical patients.
钛制颅面骨板的应用及坚固内固定原则已被应用于颅骨瓣置换。该技术已使用超过18个月,未出现与该技术或植入物相关的并发症。使用钛螺钉和骨板可实现更好的愈合和美容效果,以及减少磁共振成像和计算机断层扫描上的术后伪影,这对神经外科患者有益。
