Patients' photographs, and clinical records, were collected. The technique of defect reconstruction and method of bone grafts securing it in its position is described in this study.   results:  Patients were followed up over a mean period of 12.6 months to clinically check the stability of the reconstruction, and the contour of the cranium.
