Abstract
Decompressive craniectomy, which is performed worldwide for the treatment of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), is a surgical procedure in which part of the skull is removed to allow the brain to swell without being squeezed. On 1901, Kocher was the first surgeon to promote surgical decompression in posttraumatic brain swelling. In this article, different methods of decompressive craniectomy and its technical considerations have been reviewed.
