title: Titanium-strip cranioplasty.
abstract: Titanium strips have been used to repair skull defects when preformed metal plates are not avilable and simple wiring would not be enough. The technique is simple, obviates the need to dissect the dura mater, and gives greater resistance to further impact injury than an inlay technique.
