Thanks Sir ! But the problem is that at the time of accident my skull was not broken, the doctor at the hospital cut the skull and placed that part in my stomach. have you seen the film "Gajni". the stitches were same like amir khan in the movie. if in accident my skull got broken or damaged that is alright but that skull was separated by machine, that is why I am asking that can it be implemented again properly

Hi!
Without examining the implant and probably the shunt that was placed earlier, and accessing the degree of damage and reconstruction and adjustment, it is very difficult to say whether the implant can fit as per the original skull contour or not. At times there is a perfect fit. At times the line of injury is such that it is really difficult to get a perfect fit. Hence you need to discuss this with your treating doctor. If need be you can take an opinion from another neurosurgeon who can examine you. Take care!
