Frontal Bone Cranioplasty

Abstract

Craniofacial skeletal injuries represent one of the most common types of injuries encountered causing long term consequences both functionally and esthetically. Organized protocol has to be followed for Cranioplasty and autogenous bone grafts are more preferred over alloplastic materials. The fractured bone segments can be preserved to reconstruct the bony defects instead of disposing them as done in earlier days. We present here a case that sustained depressed fracture of the frontal bone with multiple facial injuries following a road traffic accident and had undergone frontal bone reconstruction.
