Bone flap replacement vs acrylic cranioplasty: A clinical audit

Abstract
A 5-year retrospective study comparing bone Rap replacement with acrylic cranioplasty was carried out. There was no significant difference in the high infection rates associated with the two procedures. We suggest that antibiotic-impregnated acrylic cranioplasty may be the safest and best surgical procedure based on the orthopaedic experience with gentamicin-impregnated cement in joint replacement surgery.
