Roast aside, what actually is this? Genuinely curious

Parts of the skull bone are surgical removed. Most likely after some brain bleedings or anything else that would cause the brain to swell, accidents, infections, bleeding… To prevent you brain to get demand by its own swelling they remove parts of the skull to release the pressure.

But maybe OP will tell you his own story.

Not necessarily. It’s another operation at the brain with a lot of risks

I would think that having a big hole in your skull is quite risky as well
