Original article title

Dynamic craniotomy: translational development, biomechanical validation, and early clinical experience of an adaptive cranial bone flap fixation platform.

RESEARCHNeurosurg Focus·

Takeaway

Expandable skull-fixation hardware allowed bone flaps to move outward as the brain swelled in early clinical series. Promising pressure-control and outcome signals come from small, developer-led retrospective cohorts and do not yet establish superiority over conventional fixation.

Keep in mind

Early device evidence; small retrospective clinical cohorts.
