In Situ Skull
Regeneration From Bone Marrow Cells
 The
brain is protected by several bones. There are eight bones that surround your
brain:
one frontal bone; two parietal bones, two temporal bones, one occipital
bone, one sphenoid bone and one ethmoid bone. These eight bones make up
the cranium.
Another
14 bones in the face make up the entire skull. There are also 3 small
bones in each ear. Also protecting your brain are 3 layers of tissue
called the meninges. A few of the bones have been colored in the
diagram to the right.
There
is a large opening, called the foramen magnum, located in the back of
the occipital bone. This is where the medulla ends and projects out of
the skull. Smaller holes in the skull, called foramina, allow nerves
and blood vessels to enter and leave the cranium. The picture on the
left shows the base of the skull.
The
places in the skull where the bones come together are called sutures.
These sutures are flexible in young children, but become fixed as you
age.
Case report.
This case is
about a 9 years old patient who suffered an electronic burn on scalp
deep into skull.
Debride at 2nd
days postburn. Drill on skull according to the method in bone burns and
apply MEBO externally.
After MEBT
treatment for 15 days, granulation tissues grow in drills.
After MEBT
treatment for 22 days, granulation tissues extend to pitch and skin
islands emerge.
Follow-up
visit 2 years later showed that wounds heal with epithelization and
cover the skull entirely.
