Choosing the appropriate craniotomy and executing it safely is the difference between a straightforward case with good access to the target and a procedure where access to the target is needlessly traumatic and may even be impossible.

Instructions for each craniotomy include positioning, head fixation, aesthetic considerations, and protecting the dura mater.
