    The impact of craniotomy on the human body is related to a variety of factors, such as the severity of the disease, the site of the surgery, and whether or not the bone flap was decompressed. Some people develop motor, sensory, and intellectual disabilities. Craniotomy is a general term that encompasses many different methods, procedures, and degrees of cranial surgery.

    After a craniotomy, only a small number of people may be left with varying degrees of sequelae. With current state of technology, most surgeries can alleviate this condition without causing sequelae. In general, the occurrence of complications after craniotomy is closely related to the patient's preoperative condition, preoperative consciousness, and severity of the surgical site.

    If the patient has functional impairment before the severe development of the disease, then there may be sequelae such as continuous or new exacerbation of physical dysfunction, hemiplegia, hemianopia, and partial somatosensory impairment; If the patient has already developed severe symptoms such as brain herniation and coma before the operation, then consciousness may not be restored after surgery, the brain damage is difficult to reverse, and the vegetative state may appear. In addition, if the surgical site is located in important functional areas, such as speech, vision, motor, and sensory areas, postoperative symptoms may cause corresponding loss of function in the injured area.

    If the surgical site is localized, it can lead to a group of syndromes in which important nerve conduction is impaired. In addition, some patients may also have complications and sequelae such as craniotomy epilepsy, cerebral crest fluid leakage, local bone defects, wound infections, and central nervous system infections. The sequelae of craniotomy should be judged according to the specific circumstances at the time.

    Everyone's situation is different, so the after-effects may be different.

    The sequelae of craniotomy are divided into common and unique sequelae: including postoperative hemorrhage, intracranial infection, cerebral crest fluid leakage, poor incision healing and other unique sequelae: Surgery involving brain functional areas and cranial nerves may be complicated by limb hemiplegia, partial sensory impairment, mental disorders, etc.

    If it is a mild traumatic brain injury, there will be no sequelae, if it is a severe head injury, after the operation, it may leave common sequelae such as skull loss, hemiplegia, aphasia, sleep disorders, memory loss, mood disorders and personality changes, especially in severe cases, there will be a long-term coma, become a plant, and survive.

    1. Epilepsy, a brain nervous system disease, is a relatively common sequelae for patients with craniocerebral injury. The occurrence of craniocerebral injury is likely to damage the patient's nervous system, resulting in abnormal electrical discharge of neurons in the patient's brain due to neurological dysfunction, which promotes the formation of epilepsy. 2. Aphasia is also one of the common sequelae of head injury, the occurrence of aphasia is mainly caused by the damage of the patient's cerebral cortex language center, which is caused by the damage of the head injury, resulting in the loss of the patient's language expression ability and language comprehension ability, but there may be some differences in the form of language impairment manifested by different patients.

    3. Brain injury will also cause the sequelae of amnesia syndrome, the main feature of which is the fiction based on forgetting, and patients are often prone to emotional difficulties in control. 17. Loss of cognitive function is also a sequelae caused by head injury.

    Hello: The sequelae of craniotomy depend on the degree of brain and skull damage, if there is a severe cerebral contusion, hemiplegia, aphasia, severe neuropsychiatric disorders occurred before the operation, and it is difficult to correct through surgery, the so-called sequelae, it is not caused by surgery, but the irreversible performance that occurred before surgery, and successful surgery will not bring negative effects.

The myopia of the eye is due to the problem of the cornea, the light is refracted through the eye and imaged before the retina, but cannot be imaged on the retina normally. So blurred vision occurs. Severe myopia can choose laser surgery**, also known as corneal refractive surgery, which refers to the artificial cutting of the stromal layer or surface layer of the cornea through excimer laser or femtosecond laser, so as to change the radius of curvature or corneal thickness of the cornea, thereby correcting refractive error. >>>More
