Postcraniectomy pain: comparison between 2 incisions for the retrosigmoid approach. Prospective randomized study.

CONCLUSIONS: We found a higher rate of post-craniectomy headache in patients who underwent a "modified Dandy" incision. These are preliminary data of an undergoing study and we hope to obtain more representative information in the future. We recommend interdisciplinary follow up for the integral treatment of PCH.
