Skull defect problem
The brain is the most important organ in life, and the whole brain tissue is closely protected by the bony cranial cavity. The bones that make up the cranial cavity are divided into skull base and skull. The whole skull consists of frontal bone, temporal bone on both sides and occipital bone at the back. The skull defect left a hidden danger to the head, because if the defect was hit again, it would probably cause serious brain tissue damage. However, after the damaged area exceeds two square centimeters, it is difficult to heal through the repair of the skull itself. Therefore, unless the injured person is too young and his head is still growing, it is temporarily impossible to operate. Generally, after the injury has healed for half a year, surgery will be performed to repair the damaged skull. The skull of an adult male is fully formed at the age of 20 and will not change with growth. In your case, there are skull repair operations in brain surgery in major hospitals all over the country, which is not uncommon. Don't worry about it.

The material for repairing the skull is transparent polymer (special medical engineering plastic). According to the damaged part of the skull, it will soften when soaked in special liquid medicine, which is beneficial to plasticity. After the material leaves the special liquid medicine and hardens again, it can form a close combination with the damaged skull, and its firmness is as good as that of the original bone, or even stronger. At the same time, the chemical stability of this substance is extremely high, and hiding in the body will not cause any adverse reactions, so it is often carried by patients for life without any other treatment.

Skull repair is actually not a major operation, and the success rate is very high. It's rare to hear of a failed operation. I suggest you go back to the hospital to complete the skull repair operation according to the doctor's advice.

For reference.

In addition: after reading the opinions of other netizens, I feel a little incredible. Obviously, I can completely return to normal through surgery. Why do you have to live in the psychological shadow of your disability all your life? Besides, the disability of skull defect may cause accidents!
