Skull Clamp Mayfield Brain Retractor System for Craniotomy and Skull-Base Surgery

The three-pin Mayfield skull clamp is the most widely used cranial immobilization device in neurosurgery, routinely applied during craniotomy drilling and microneurosurgical procedures where absolute head stability is required throughout the operative field. Standard neurosurgical protocol specifies rigid pin fixation as the established method for maintaining skull position when using intraoperative navigation systems during intra-axial tumor resection.
