Calvarial defects are common problems in craniofacial surgery. They may be explained by surgical interventions, infectious processes, cranial trauma or congenital anomalies. Calvarial defects are particularly challenging because they do not heal spontaneously in humans older than 24 months. The feasibility of using bifocal transport distraction osteogenesis to repair calvarial defects has been successfully evaluated in numerous experimental models. To our knowledge, it has not been used for the reconstruction of human skull defects. We report the first case of human calvarial defect healed by transport distraction osteogenesis.
颅骨缺损是颅面外科常见的问题。这些缺损可能由手术干预、感染过程、颅脑创伤或先天畸形引起。颅骨缺损尤其具有挑战性，因为 24 个月以上的人类颅骨缺损不会自发愈合。双焦点骨搬运牵张成骨术修复颅骨缺损的可行性已在许多实验模型中得到成功评估。据我们所知，该技术尚未用于人类颅骨缺损的重建。我们报告了首例经骨搬运牵张成骨术愈合的人类颅骨缺损病例。
