If you must actually open the skull, typically pilot holes are drilled and a bone saw is used to connect the holes, creating a plug of skull that can be replaced post-surgery. Note this this is not a common procedure at all, and the neurosuregeon will usually use an existing opening in the skull rather than creating a new one., if possible.
