To date, there are no broad-based studies defining the standard of care for pediatric neurosurgeons in the area of cranial fixation. Thus, the techniques for cranial fixation remain largely surgeon dependent. Over the past few years, there have been several new cranial fixation devices approved for use in the United States. To gain insights into techniques currently in use by pediatric neurosurgeons, we polled all pediatric neurosurgeons listed in either the American Society of Pediatric Neurosurgeons or the International Society of Pediatric Neurosurgeons regarding their techniques for cranial fixation in a variety of age groups. These survey findings may provide a basis for establishing recommendations and lead to a standard of care for cranial fixation techniques among pediatric neurosurgeons. |
