“…14 These forms of nonautogenous reconstruction carry the inherent risk of infection, extrusion, fragmentation, growth restriction, pathologic ossification, and inflammatory reactions. 1,4,12,13,15 These limitations have led to the search for an ideal method of skull reconstruction in these challenging cases. We present our experience with the demineralized bone matrix and resorbable mesh bilaminate cranioplasty, a novel method of reconstructing pediatric large-scale skull defects using demineralized bone matrix (DBX; Synthes, Inc., West Chester, Pa., and the Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Edison, N.J.) sandwiched between two polylactic acid/polyglycolic acid resorbable mesh plates (Synthes).…”
