How Safe Is Occipital Knob Skull Reduction Surgery?
Q: Dr. Eppley, I was interested in receiving more information on the Occipital knob reduction. In addition how safe is having this procedure completed? I am apprehensive due to concerns of safety and anxiety considering I have never had any other surgery.
A: Occipital knob skull reduction is a perfectly safe and effective surgery. The occipital bone is thickest of the skull bone particularly along the nuchal ridge area so the brain is safely removed from the reduction area.
