DEVELOPED METHODS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF POST-BRAIN DEFECTS OF SOFT AND BONE TISSUES OF THE CRANIAL VAULT
Abstract. This article is devoted to the introduction into clinical practice of the conventional method of surgical treatment of patients with cicatricial defects and deformities of the soft and bone tissues of the cranial vault. The results of surgical practice were studied in 22 patients. In the long-term period in the main group (n-10) patients, where improved methods of surgical treatment were used, good functional and aesthetic results were observed in 9(90%) patients, satisfactory in 1(10%) patients.

In the post-operative period, local hypothermia and antibiotic therapy were prescribed.

An improved method of combined plastics of soft and bone defects of the cranial vault was used in 10(45.4%) patients. In cases when the patients had bone defects with exposure of the dura mater and liquorrhea, for vital reasons an urgent operation, using an improved method of combined plastics.
Operation techniques: Before the operation, using a marker, the boundaries of the skin aponeurotic flap were outlined, respectively, the area and contour of the defect next to it were used to cut out the skin-aponeurotic flap from the unaffected tissues. The end of the flap was taken on the handles. The edges of the bone defect were carefully treated in the traditional way.
According to the size and contour of the defect, a graft was formed from a carbon plate. The latter was fixed to the edges of the bone defect of the cranial vault using prolene threads. After washing the surgical wound with an antiseptic solution (Tsiteal), the latter was closed with a previously formed skin aponeurotic flap. Under the patchwork space drained vacuum
drainage. In 2 (50%) patients, intra-operatively stretched tissues were used to close the donor site.

Results: In the main group of patients (n-10), there was no necrosis of the flap and no cases of suppuration. Subcutaneous hematoma occurred only in 1 (10%) patient. Observations for periods of up to 3 years showed that the thus-closed, long-exposed bone was not sequestered, and no osteomyelitis recurred.
In the control group, necrosis of the distal end of the flap was observed in 1(8.3%) patients after the final plastic surgery. Hair loss along the suture line was found in 1(11.7%)patient. Under-scrap hematoma occurred in 2(16.6%)patients.
In the long-term period in the main group (n-10) patients, where improved methods of surgical methods were used, good functional and aesthetic results were observed in 9(90%) patients, satisfactory in 1(10%) patients.
In the control group, using traditional methods of surgical treatment due to complications, good results were observed in 10(88.2%) patients, satisfactory in 2(11.8%) patients.
