METHOD FOR TREATING THE CASES OF LINEAR CEREBRAL BONE VAULT FRACTURES Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC A61B17/56 A61L27/24 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves introducing sharp tip of hollow needle into bone cortical layer crack. The crack is filled through needle lumen by introducing Collapan gel mixed with radiopaque substance in minimum concentration providing radio contrast range excess above injured bone contrast. Soft tissues are pierced with the needle in the vicinity of crack filling area center. Needle bevel plane is set in crack plane projection and introduced into the crack. Then, needle tube is rotated with its bevel plane directed into crack space. The cerebral covering soft tissues are pressed to bone along the crack path above positioned needle tip projection and the mixture is introduced in the amount equal to crack cavity region under pressed sift tissue. The needle end is pulled and directed towards the opposite crack region without removing it from the soft tissues and the region is also filled. Collapan introduction into crack fissure is carried out under X-ray optoelectronic transducer control.

EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of treatment; reduced risk of postoperative complications.
