Calvarial Distraction

Calvarial Distraction is a surgical technique involving the gradual separation of osteotomized cranial bone segments to stimulate new bone formation in the distracted interstice, distinguished from other cranial reconstruction methods by its reliance on controlled mechanical distraction to achieve expansion of the calvarial vault.
