title: [Application of damper craniofixators from nitinol in plasty of skull defects].
abstract: An overview of the methods of fixation of the skull bones is presented,as well as discussion and characterization of different methods of fixation. A new system of fixation of the skull bones was used in osseous-plastic trepanation and reconstructive operations using nitinol craniofixators. Results of cranioplasty using craniofixators were analyzed in 62 patients with craniocerebral injuries and its consequences, vascular and oncological diseases of the brain. There were no complications in the postoperative period. Articles made of nitinol are very strong, elastic and have the effect of thermo-mechanical memory of the form.
