Vascularized omental free flaps effectively treat recurrent intracranial infections after craniotomy. This neurosurgery technique offers excellent flap survival and prevents infection recurrence, aiding in dural reconstruction.
Area of Science:
- Neurosurgery
- Plastic Surgery
- Infectious Disease
Background:
- Epidural abscesses and subdural empyema are life-threatening neurosurgical complications post-craniotomy.
- Managing recalcitrant cranial wound infections and dural reconstruction presents significant challenges.
