摘要
We developed an original base plate to support both the patient's head and a Leksell stereotactic skull frame during frame placement in the supine position. The base plate is made of transparent acrylic board with holes at the posterior posts for injection of local anesthetics and maneuver of fixation screws through them. A stable and comfortable position of the patient's head in a supine position is obtained and maintained on this base plate with an air-pressure cuff beneath the patient's head. The patient is able to keep a stable, relaxed and comfortable posture during the procedures of skull frame placement.
