We present our clinical experience in cranioplasty with autograft as follows: conchal cartilage for losses up to 2 cm2, outer table grafts for defects up to 100 cm2, and, for larger defects still, split rib grafts, which ...

The purpose of this study was to develop an experimental model in rabbits that would permit us to analyze skull reconstruction and enable the study of bone autografts, osteofacial flaps, and other materials. We use the ...

Purpose: To quantify the amount of bone formation in the calvarial region of Wistar rats after craniotomy using bone wax as a haemostatic agent. Methods: Surgery to produce bilateral, symmetric, full-thickness cranial ...

Purpose: To verify if uterine cerclage can induce craniosynostosis or any cranial deformity in new born Wistar rats. Methods: One pregnant female Wistar rat underwent laparotomy on day 18 of gestation and the uterus cervix ...
