Craniectomy size and decompression of the temporal base using the altered posterior question-mark incision for decompressive hemicraniectomy

Abstract The altered posterior question-mark incision for decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC) was proposed to reduce the risk of intraoperative injury of the superficial temporal artery (STA) and demonstrated a reduced rate of wound-healing disorders after cranioplasty. However, decompression size d...
