Abstract
BACKGROUND: Bone flap re-approximation during cranioplasty can be complicated by underlying pseudomeningocele or meningoencephalocele. A technique for controlled reduction duraplasty to aid bone flap positioning is suggested. METHODS: A simple method using bipolar electrocautery in a predetermined radial pattern from the center of defect is described. Localized tissue contraction allows controlled reduction in the surface area and degree of protrusion. This in turn facilitates bone flap positioning. RESULTS: The main advantage of this technique is slow and evenly distributed pressure conferred by controlled tissue contraction using multiple radial coagulation lines. No technical difficulties or complications have occurred with this method during cranioplasty for 11 patients. CONCLUSION: This simple technique for controlled reduction duraplasty can provide an easy and efficient method for bone flap re-approximation, and add to the existing techniques for a commonly performed procedure.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
