    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Neurosurgery
    • Biomaterials

    Context:

    • Cranioplasty addresses cranial bone defects resulting from trauma, surgery, or congenital issues.
    • Reconstructive surgery aims to restore the skull's form and function.

    Purpose:

    • To review current literature methods for cranioplasty.
    • To present the application of autologous bone grafts (iliac ala, ribs) and solid silicone implants in cranioplasty.
    • To illustrate surgical outcomes with three case examples.

    Summary:

    • Literature review of cranioplasty techniques.
    • Clinical application of autologous bone grafts from iliac ala and ribs at Turin University.
    • Introduction of solid silicone as a cranioplasty material, with detailed discussion forthcoming.
