Official title
Comparing Outcomes Between Early and Standard-of-care Delayed Cranioplasty After Decompressive Hemicraniectomy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This prospective, randomized study aims to comprehensively evaluate the impact of cranioplasty timing on postoperative complications and long-term functional outcomes following decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC). The primary endpoint focuses on comparing the rates of various postoperative complications, including infection, seizures, return to the operating room, and the need for ventriculoperitoneal shunting, between patients undergoing standard of care cranioplasty (\>3 months after DHC) and those receiving early cranioplasty (within 8 weeks).
