The brain is surprisingly much smaller than the full shape of the head. There is a thick layer between the scalp and the skull, and the thickness of the bone itself. I definitely was shocked the first time I saw a patient with a craniectomy.

That section of the brain is stored in a jar. It's probably just relaxing there once the pressure is gone.
