When the Bone Flap Expands Like Bellows of Accordion: Feasibility Study Using Novel Technique of Expansile (Hinge) Craniotomy for Severe Traumatic Brain Injury.

Background: Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is a rescue operation performed for reduction of intracranial pressure due to progressive brain swelling, mandating the need for cranioplasty.

Objective: To describe expansile craniotomy (EC) as a noninferior technique that may be effectively utilized in situations requiring standard DC.

Materials And Methods: A decision to perform DC or EC was taken by consecutively allocation to either of the procedures.
