Cranialplasty is one of the typical neurosurgical procedures.As a result of their aesthetics and biocompatibility, autologous grafts are chosen. Numerous patients with skull defects experience local scalp depression as a result of atmospheric pressure, which can cause an imbalance in intracranial pressure, displacement of brain tissue, reduction in cerebral hemispheric blood flow, and problems with cerebrospinal fluid circulation, all of which can result in a variety of clinical manifestations. Then cranioplasty can effectively restore normal cerebrospinal fluid dynamics and cerebral cortical blood perfusion, which is conducive to reducing intracranial complications and assisting in the restoration of neurological function. It can also repair skull defects, restore the patient's skull appearance and protective function. This paper's goal is to investigate a foundation for the viability and timeliness of cranioplasty, This paper discussed the history of cranioplasty, the pathophysiological effects of recovery, complications, and rehabilitation issues from both qualitative and quantitative viewpoints. According to the average cranioplasty score, having a procedure done within three months following a traumatic DC may help with neurological function recovery. In addition, effective communication between the surgical team and the rehabilitation staff is crucial for maximizing recovery and enhancing results.
