Subject: Complete healing of trepanned skulls ?

Hello all, 

I have a trepanned skull, as the result of having acquired ADEM.  I cannot get 
any information as to whether this hole done in the surgical proceedure will 
heal so as to close shut.  The doctors removed a considerable amount of my 
skull and then replaced it, but the initial hole a trepanned hole is, was about 
1.5 cm in diameter.

Here is a photo with details of the brain samples taken.

I have looked everywhere on the net about it, and have yet to find any 
references as to whether such holes close shut.  Not even the neursurgeon can 
tell me one way or another, though he says, or thought no.  There would be no 
further healing beyond a year or so.
