A cranioplasty is a surgical procedure used to correct a defect in a bone of the skull. The defect might be congenital, the result of trauma to the head or a complication from an earlier surgery. A cranioplasty will not only improve the appearance of the head, but also may provide several medical benefits. Strengthening the problem area offers much more thorough protection for the brain. Additionally, those patients experiencing headaches or neurological impairment may find their symptoms are diminished after undergoing a cranioplasty.
