Intraoperative procedure of skull reconstruction and cranial CT results on the first postoperative day. A The dura was closed with watertight sutures after completion of the intracranial microvascular decompression procedure. B A layer of gelatin sponge was placed over the sutured dura. C The autologous skull fragments were placed so that they evenly covered the gelatin sponge. D, E, F The patient’s cranial CT on the first postoperative day showed that the autologous bone fragments filled in the skull defect evenly (white arrow)
