Abstract

 Introduction: incisions placed on the scalp cause continuous bleeding which obscures the surgeon’s field. There are many ways to control such bleeding like application of Raney clips, scalp tourniquet or infiltration of adrenaline saline solution. Diode laser scalpel was first introduced for oral surgery due to its advantages of hemostasis and better wound healing. Here we describe our experience in a case where the diode laser scalpel was used to place the skin incision while performing an acrylic cranioplasty.
