EVALUATING THE RESULT OF CRANIOPLASTY USING 3D TITANIUM SCREW MESH
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: Describe the clinical characteristics and evaluate the results of cranioplasty with 3D titanium screw mesh at hospital 175, hospital 103 and hospital 108. Subject and method: 52 patients underwent cranioplasty with 3D Titanium at Hospital 103, Military Central Hospital 108 and Hospital 175, from January 2021 to August 2023. Results: Headache and pain at the skull defect are the most common symptoms with rates of 67.31% and 46.15% of cases, respectively. After surgery, 94.23% of patients had at least one positive result or more. The overall complication rate after surgery was 17.31%. There were no cases of death after surgery. Common complications are: new seizures (9.62%), hydrocephalus (3.85%), fluid-air collection under the patch (3.85%)... Group of patients with VP- Previous shunts or infections related to previous surgery have a higher rate of postoperative complications than the other groups. No relationship has been found between a number of other factors such as age, gender, and comorbidities. According to the location of the skull defect or the initial cause of complications after thoracotomy with Titanium 3D. Conclusion: Titanium 3D can be an ideal replacement material for cases of skull defects where there is no autologous bone left for grafting
