Percutaneous epidural dorsal cord stimulation in multiple sclerosis.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Titanium fixation plates are routinely used for rigid fixation of bone flaps after craniotomy. In craniofacial surgery or after craniotomy involving orbitozygomatic osteotomies, these plates are occasionally removed because of infection, pain, protrusion, soft tissue erosion, and plate malfunction. However...
