    Background:

    • Skull defects pose significant reconstructive challenges.
    • Traditional repair methods like wiring and suturing have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel technique for skull defect repair using titanium.
    • To highlight the advantages of titanium in craniofacial reconstruction.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing titanium for precise reproduction of skull contours.
    • Employing a technique simpler than conventional wiring or suturing.

    Main Results:

    • Accurate replication of the patient's natural skull shape.
    • Demonstration of a simplified surgical approach.

    Conclusions:

    • Titanium offers an effective and straightforward solution for skull defect repair.
    • The material's inert, radiolucent, and rigid characteristics are advantageous.
