Abstract

ObjectiveCraniocerebral injury has high disability and mortality rates. The timing of cranioplasty has an important impact on patients’ prognosis. This study was performed to compare the functional prognosis between super early repair and conventional repair.MethodsThis observational study included 60 patients who underwent cranioplasty after surgical treatment of severe craniocerebral trauma. The patients were divided into two groups according to the time of cranial repair after the surgical treatment of craniocerebral injury: the super early group and the conventional repair group. Sex, age, Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score, Zubrod performance status (ZPS) score, psychological function score, quality of life score, and complications were recorded.ResultsThe KPS score, ZPS score, psychological function score, and quality of life score were significantly related to the intervention period. Each of these scores had a clear correlation with the performance of super early treatment.ConclusionSuper early cranial repair does not increase the incidence of surgical complications, and it can improve the postoperative KPS, ZPS, and quality of life scores.
