Craig H. Lichtblau*, Scott Raffa, Kaveh Assadi, Christopher Warburton, Gabrielle Meli and Allyson Gorman

In addition to its aesthetic benefits, cranioplasty has been shown to improve neurological symptoms related to cranial defects. Here we describe a case study from a cranioplasty procedure performed 3 decades ago and discuss subsequent research that has helped to clarify the benefits we have observed in those who have undergone cranioplasty.
