DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000021035
Abstract: Abstract Background: One of the most common complications following autologous cranioplasty is bone flap resorption (BFR). Severe BFR can lead to revision surgery with implantation of synthetic bone flap and also necessarily lead to higher… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/sni.sni_388_17
Abstract: Background: Craniectomies and cranioplasty are common neurosurgical procedures performed after brain trauma, ischemia, tumor resection, or infection. Post-cranioplasty autologous bone flap resorption may occur in patients after delayed cranial reconstruction. The occurrence is usually low… read more here.
