Introduction

The intricate and crucial process of cranial reconstruction is used in neurosurgical and maxillofacial procedures to repair damage to the cranial vault caused by tumour excision, congenital defects, trauma, or other pathological conditions. Thanks to developments in materials, technology, and surgical techniques, cranial reconstruction techniques have advanced significantly in recent years. These developments could lead to better patient outcomes, fewer problems, and an overall higher standard of living for patients having cranial repairs. This thorough analysis compiles and summarises the most recent research on developments in cranial reconstruction methods. In order to pinpoint new developments in cranial repair, a comprehensive review of the literature was done.[1].

These include, but are not limited to, Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM), novel biomaterials, less invasive surgical techniques, and patient-specific 3D printing. The review focuses on a number of significant developments in cranial reconstruction methods. With the use of patient-specific 3D printing, surgeons can now build implants that are precisely anatomically fitted, a revolutionary tool. Novel biomaterials with enhanced oestrogenic qualities and biocompatibility include biodegradable polymers and bioactive ceramics. Implant manufacturing and surgery planning are streamlined by CAD/CAM technologies. The goals of minimally invasive techniques are to improve patient recovery and lower surgical morbidity. All of these developments add up to more accurate reconstructions, shorter recovery times, and better-looking results. The application of state-of-the-art materials and technologies is causing a paradigm change in the field of cranial reconstruction. These developments have the potential to completely change patient treatment by improving the accuracy, security, and efficacy of cranial restoration techniques. [2].

In order to make the best decisions and maximise patient outcomes, it is critical for researchers, patients, and healthcare professionals to be up to date on the latest developments in cranial reconstruction. This thorough analysis offers an overview of the state of cranial reconstruction today, opening the door for more research and development of these cutting-edge methods. The cranial vault is an extremely important structure because of its complex and essential function in safeguarding the human brain. The integrity of the cranial vault may be compromised by tumour resections, congenital abnormalities, trauma injuries, and other pathological disorders, which may call for surgical intervention for cranial reconstruction. [3].

Cranial anatomy restoration is a complicated process with the goal of achieving the best possible neurological and functional results, not only a cosmetic one. Significant progress in cranial reconstruction methods has been made in the last few years, which is indicative of a changing environment in the fields of craniofacial and neurosurgery. The driving forces behind these developments are the combination of novel materials, state-of-the-art equipment, and developing surgical techniques. Consequently, there has been a revolution in cranial reconstruction, marked by a move away from conventional approaches and towards more accurate, patient-centred, and minimally invasive methods. These developments have the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes, lower complications, and raise the standard of living for those having cranial repairs. This thorough analysis aims to present a broad picture of these developments in cranial reconstruction methods.[4].

By providing insights into the trends, technology, and materials influencing the area, it seeks to compile the state of knowledge as it stands today. These developments have far-reaching consequences that go well beyond the operating room; they can affect patients' mental health as well as the clinical therapy of cranial abnormalities. The swift advancement of cranial reconstructive methods has significant consequences for medical professionals and patients alike. The goal of this study is to be a useful tool for researchers, medical professionals, and anyone who are attempting to navigate the complicated field of cranial restoration. We seek to promote informed decision-making, encourage additional research, and eventually optimise cranial reconstructive treatments for the benefit of patients and the advancement of the field by analysing the most recent trends and breakthroughs.[5].
