Dynamic Craniotomy With Khanna NuCrani Plates as an Alternative to Craniotomy With Fixed Plates in Traumatic Brain Injury

Craniotomy bone flap fixation with dynamic plates is an alternative to craniotomy with fixed plates. The main advantage of dynamic craniotomy over a craniotomy with fixed plates is that it allows for immediate intracranial volume expansion with reversible outward bone flap migration in patients who may develop postoperative worsening brain swelling and/or hemorrhage, with decreased need for repeat surgeries and associated complications.
