Extradural hematoma (EDH) following Cranioplasty is rare but associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence of post cranioplasty EDH ranges from 2% to 12%.Therefore it is of paramount importance to understand, prevent, and treat the complications as they arise. Aim and Objective : To show multiple dural tenting technique is effective in preventing post cranioplasty EDH. To show Paracentral hitches along with central hitches minimizes the occurrence of post cranioplasty EDH. Conclusion : Cranioplasty is one of the common surgery performed in trauma settings. Even though considered simple surgery, cranioplasty is associated with high complication rates. Paracentral hitches along with central hitches minimizes the occurrence of post cranioplasty EDH.
