Cranioplasty
Cranioplasty Treament

Treatment Range Hospital in Hyderabad offers advanced cranioplasty procedures to repair skull defects that may occur after trauma, previous brain surgery, or decompressive craniectomy. This surgery restores the shape and protection of the skull, improves neurological function, and enhances cosmetic appearance. Our experienced neurosurgeons use biocompatible materials like titanium, acrylic, or patient-specific 3D implants for precise reconstruction.
Performed in a fully equipped neurosurgical operation theatre, cranioplasty involves meticulous planning and advanced imaging techniques for accurate placement of implants. The procedure also helps in improving cerebrospinal fluid dynamics and protecting the brain from external injury. Patients receive comprehensive pre- and post-operative care to ensure safe recovery and optimal outcomes.

With skilled specialists, modern technology, and a patient-centered approach, we help patients regain confidence and quality of life after skull injuries or surgeries.
- Your 6 - Phase health Process
Your Complete Cranioplasty Journey
🩺 Phase 1: Symptoms Identification
- Visible depression or defect in the skull
- Headaches or dizziness
- Neurological symptoms due to loss of skull protection (syndrome of the trephined)
- Cosmetic concerns from skull irregularity
📋Phase 2: OPD Consultation with Neurosurgeon
- Review of medical history and previous surgeries (e.g., craniectomy)
- CT scan/MRI to evaluate skull defect size and surrounding brain health
- Discussion about material options for repair (titanium, PEEK, PMMA, or patient’s own bone)
- Planning optimal timing for surgery (usually 3–6 months post-injury)
🧬 Phase 3: Causes (Indications for Cranioplasty)
- Skull defect post-decompressive craniectomy
- Trauma-related bone loss
- Surgical removal of infected bone flap (delayed repair after infection control)
- Congenital skull defects requiring reconstruction
🔍 Phase 4: Diagnosis & Pre-Surgical Workup
- Imaging: High-resolution CT scan for 3D planning
- Blood tests for infection markers and fitness for surgery
- Custom implant design for large or irregular defects
- Pre-anesthesia assessment
💉 Phase 5: Treatment (Cranioplasty Procedure)
- Surgical exposure of skull defect under general anesthesia
- Implanting autologous bone (stored bone flap) or synthetic material (titanium/PEEK)
- Securing and contouring the implant for protection and cosmetic symmetry
- Surgery duration: 2–4 hours
🏥 Phase 6: Post-Surgery Care & Recovery
- Hospital stay: 3–5 days for observation
- Pain management and antibiotics to prevent infection

Helping you understand Our healthcare
Cranioplasty is a surgical procedure to repair and reshape skull defects using the patient’s own bone or synthetic materials (like titanium, PEEK, or PMMA). It restores skull protection and cosmetic appearance.
- To protect the brain after decompressive craniectomy
- To repair skull defects from trauma or previous surgeries
- To improve neurological symptoms (headaches, dizziness, cognitive changes)
Usually 3–6 months after the initial surgery or trauma, once brain swelling and infection risk have resolved.
- Autologous bone (patient’s stored bone flap)
- Synthetic implants (Titanium, PEEK, PMMA, 3D-customized for perfect fit)
Yes. Modern techniques and materials make it a safe procedure. Risks like infection or implant rejection are rare with proper care.
