conclusions along with the technological advancement, different materials are employed according to the size of the cranium defect and the age of the case. the application of split costa cranioplasty for the small cranium defects in the region of patient’s face is the method with the least possibility of complications, and its cosmetic and functional results are quite promising. introduction os...

We prove: Theorem 0.1 (Main Theorem). Let K be an AEC and μ > LS(K). Suppose K satisfies the disjoint amalgamation property for models of cardinality μ. If K is μ-Galois-stable, does not have long splitting chains, and satisfies locality of splitting, then any two (μ, σl)-limits over M for (l ∈ {1, 2}) are isomorphic over M . This result extends results of Shelah from [Sh 394], [Sh 576], [Sh 60...

An infant girl was referred for assessment and management of a large frontal skull defect. She was born, after an uneventful pregnancy, by caesarian section to a 36-year-old mother (G1P1).
