Reply to comment by EstroJen in Incredibly well-performed skull deformity reconstruction by HealerMD

There is an incision made in the abdomen and a pocket is made where the skull flap is inserted. Basically the skull sits under the skin. This keeps the bone in an environment that is isotonic and warm, plus the hospital cannot lose the bone.

This made me laugh. How big are the skull flaps?
