Subgaleal drains may be associated with decreased infection following autologous cranioplasty: a retrospective analysis.
Background: Autologous bone is often the first choice in cranioplasty following a decompressive craniectomy. However, infection is a common complication, with reported rates up to 25%. While the incidence and management of infection are well documented, the risk factors associated with infection remain less clear. The current study aims to identify predictors of infection risk following autologous cranioplasty.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy and cranioplasty using cryopreserved autologous bone flaps between 2010 and 2020. Patient demographics and factors related to both surgeries and infection rates were recorded from patient records. Logistic regressions were conducted to determine which factors were implicated in the development of infection.
Results: In our cohort, 126 patients underwent autologous cranioplasty. A total of 10 patients (7.9%) developed an infection following reconstruction, with half resulting in implant failure. We did not identify any significant risk factors for infection. Regression analysis identified placement of subgaleal drain following cranioplasty as a protective factor against the development of infection (OR: 0.16, p = 0.007). On average, drains remained in for 3 days, with no difference between the length of drains for those with infection vs. those without (p = 0.757).
Conclusions: The current study demonstrates an infection rate of 7.9% in patients who receive an autologous cranioplasty following decompressive craniectomy, which is consistent with previous data. Half (4%) of patients who experienced an infection ultimately required removal of the implant. While it is common practice for neurosurgeons to use drains to prevent hematomas and fluid collections, we found that subgaleal drain placement following cranioplasty was associated with decreased infection, thus demonstrating another benefit of a commonly used tool.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
