Interpretation of postoperative imaging can be challenging and confounded by postoperative changes and implant-related complications. Review of recent literature suggested that there is a paucity of data on postoperative cranial implant-related complications. If not addressed appropriately in a timely manner, these complications may cause a delay in the patient's treatment with subsequent prolongation of hospital stay. It is therefore paramount for clinicians and radiologists to be aware of the appearance of these implant-related complications on imaging during postoperative surveillance.
