We report an intractable post cranioplasty hematoma which required multiple operations. The titanium cranioplasty was for a cranial defect from surgery for an intracranial hemorrhage. Despite removal of the cranioplasty the haematoma repeatedly recurred. So we applied the cryohemostasis by the ice packs 4 times a day for 30 minutes. With this simple cooling method haemostasis was achieved.
