A member asked:
Is there a problem with my husbands right side skull flap? he had double skull cranioplasty sept 2010, left is total healed and fine, looks great. right side still has depression and the two round titianium plates are sticking out uncomfortably. an x-ray
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : No long drawn out answer here. He needs to go back to the surgeon who did the flaps in the first place. The right side may need to be revised. It has been over a year and it is not normal to have to be having this problem. He should not put up with it any longer.
