If it is very small and stops growing, there is no need to do it.

But if it is already very big and affects your brain, then it must be done away with.

Experts said that the outer plate of the skull should be removed. I initially underwent an operation to remove the outer plate. Generally speaking, the possibility of recurrence is very small, but unfortunately, I relapsed, and 11 years later I had another surgery. A craniectomy was performed to remove all the skull in the diseased area, and then repair it with titanium mesh. Not only was it very expensive, but it also took a long time to recover after the operation. Nowadays, when you wash your scalp with your hands, you will feel this. It’s been 5 months since the surgery. I had a second surgery because the area was too large and there was no way to do anything about the recurrence. I think you should avoid surgery as much as possible. I think your condition should be psychologically affected. If the skull osteoma stops growing, it would be better to have regular check-ups.
