| Popis: | Objective Bone flap resorption (BFR) is a complication of cranioplasty (CP) that increases the risk of brain damage and can cause cosmetic defects. In this study, the risk factors for BFR were examined to improve the prognosis of patients after CP for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods This study was conducted in 80 patients with TBI who underwent decompressive craniectomy and CP with an autologous bone graft between August 2006 and August 2017. BFR was defined as a >0.1 ratio of the difference between the initial bone flap area and the last bone flap area to the craniectomy size and a |
