Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: • Resilient healthcare in PTBI with open skull fractures optimizes recovery and balances limited medical resource use. • Timely craniectomy with debridement in PTBI reduces need for prolonged broad-spectrum antibiotics. • Craniectomy facilitates a second-look procedure for managing delayed ICH, abscess formation, or shunt insertion.
