Titanium mesh exposure after cranioplasty is the most serious complication of this procedure.Although some clinical experience has been gradually accumulated over the years in the diagnosis and treatment of titanium mesh exposure,the treatment is often not standardized and it is difficult to achieve satisfactory repair results due to insufficient understanding of its pathogenesis and concurrent infections.To normalize the diagnosis and treatment of titanium mesh exposed wounds after cranioplasty and improve the therapeutic effect and the quality of life of patients,the Wound Repair Professional Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized an expert discussion based on the literature and current diagnosis and treatment status of titanium mesh exposed wounds after cranioplasty at home and abroad,and reached a consensus on the pathogenesis,preventive measures,and diagnosis and treatment strategies of titanium mesh exposed wounds after cranioplasty to provide reference for relevant clinicians.
