Scalp tumors are among the most commonly encountered tumors. Behaviour and management of scalp tumors depends heavily on cell lineage. Appropriate identification of these tumors is paramount in mitigating disease burden. Most tumors require surgical resection at a minimum; others will require adjuvant therapies.

Introduction: A brain tumor, known as an intracranial tumor, is an abnormal mass of tissue in which cells grow and multiply uncontrollably, seemingly unchecked by the mechanisms that control normal cells. The two main groups of brain tumors are termed primary and metastatic.

Aim: The aim is to study the different causes, clinical outcome and management of the patient.
Materials and Methods: This study is a retrospective observational study and included all the patient who underwent surgery for intracranial tumor in our hospital from December 2016 to December 2021.

Results: Total 350 patients underwent the surgery for intracranial tumor who was admitted in our hospital from December 2016 to December 2021. In all the patient presented headache and seizures was the commonest symptom.

Conclusion: In our retrospective study conducted in 350 patients, headache was the most common symptom and more frequently associated with males and cerebral convexity is the most common location of occurrence with meningioma being the most common.

Flaps and skin grafts are common part of plastic surgery. Complications noted with the flaps,skin grafts are seroma, hematoma underneath which causes failure of flaps and skin grafts. Fibrin glue promotes adhesion of the flaps, skin grafts in minutes. Evicel is a commercially available fibrin glue, which is used as a sealant materials and adherent material underneath the flaps. Fibrin glue was proposed to decrease the hematoma, seroma. In this article we highlight the role of fibrin glue in key stone flap in scalp electrical burn.
