摘要：

BACKGROUND This procedure was done in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ethylcyanoacrylate as an adhesive for fixation of the bone flap. METHODS One hundred consecutive craniotomies in patients older than 16 years in which the bone flap was fixed with ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate were studied. The osteosynthesis and any complications in all cases were followed clinically and radiologically for 3 months. RESULTS Clinical and radiographic observation demonstrated that osteosynthesis was produced in 100% of the cases with no complications related to this procedure. CONCLUSION This technique proved to be safe, fast, and easy to accomplish, with immediate stability of the bone flap and excellent cosmetic results. (C) 2000 by Elsevier Science Inc.
