The whole extent of the<unk>  is exposed by removing the overlying skull. The ragged edges of the<unk>  are excised. However, care should be taken not to excise too much<unk> as it may increase the chances for spread of infection into the subarachnoid space. Removing too much<unk> will also make it difficult to close the<unk> . If there is not much<unk>  loss, interrupted sutures are made with non-absorbable material. In case of<unk>  loss, the defect is closed using a transplant from fascia lata or pericranium given that there is not much contamination of the<unk>  In case of contamination, the defect is left alone and a primary suture is performed at a later date. If<unk>  is associated with haemorrhage from<unk>  vessels, they are coagulated using diathermy. This technique is preferred because the vessels are too small to be picked up by an artery forceps. Large vessels, if present, can be under-run with suture. When the<unk>  is associated with a<unk>  sinus hemorrhage, a graft of pericranium is used for a small<unk>  and a muscle graft from temporalis is used for a large<unk> . The muscle graft is flattened by hammering before using it for grafting. If<unk>  is associated with a brain injury, wide exposure of the wound is done to examine the extent of brain damage. All devitalized brain tissues are removed along with extravasated blood, foreign bodies and pieces of bone. All devitalized tissue and foreign bodies are removed by a combination of irrigation and suction. Following<unk>  repair, skull deficit is treated by using moulded tantalum plates or acrylic inlays, three to six months after the head injury.
