I doubt any civil reistered pressurised passenger carrying aircraft would be released back to service per the MEL due to structural damage.
`
Structual variations to the tdc are covered in the CDL - ie missing panels etc., which are allowable. The CDL is part of the Flight Manual.
`
A normal pressurised passenger aircraft with structural damage could be cleared to ferry unpressurised, to a place where repairs can be carried out under a "Permit to Fly" - normally issued, now, by EASA. - Assuming the aircraft is regestered in the EU.
