Abstract：Objective To evaluate the intracranial condition before and after cranioplasty with 2D and 3D reconstruction , to observe postoperative complications ,and to study the applied tech computer aided personalized titanium mesh .Methods Thirty‐five patients with skull defect underwent MSCT scans and then CT data were transferred into workstation to be re‐constructed into 2D ,3D images for personalizing titanium mesh prosthesis and clinical application .We analysed intracrani‐al changes before and after cranioplasty and the performance of postoperative complications .Results Thirty‐five patients showed satisfactory chimeri prosthesis with well fixed titanium mesh .The meningeal arcs of thirty patients were normal while five were cupped before cranioplasty .One presented with epidural hematoma ,three with subdural hematoma ,two with scalp infection ,and none with prosthesis shift after operation .Conclusion Multislice spiral CT with two‐dimensional and three‐dimensional reconstruction technique plays an important role in cranioplasty of patients with skull defect .
