Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is performed to treat refractory intracranial hypertension following traumatic brain injury and stroke. Though technically not demanding, DC is still associated with several early and delayed complications. Early complications can be fatal, whereas delayed complications may result in regression of recovery. Adequately sized DC along with aggressive medical management mitigates most of the acute complications whereas early cranioplasty prevents delayed complications.
