Spontaneous reossification is a very rare phenomenon following a large cal-varial defect, particularly in adults. A 29-year-old woman with acute subduralhematoma and brain edema underwent emergent decompressive craniectomyand evacuation of hematoma. Follow-up examination 2 years later showed awell-formed bone along the craniectomy site. To our knowledge, this is the firstcase report with total spontaneous reossification in adults. A literature review isprovided, and the physiology of the process is suggested. Pericranium, diploë,and, above all, dura mater collaborate in spontaneous bone formation. All theselayers are very important, and they must be respected during dissection. [-]
