Novel Dural Closure Technique Using Polyglactin Acid Sheet Prevents Cerebrospinal Fluid Leakage after Spinal Surgery

Abstract

The combination of polyglactin acid sheet and fibrin glue can achieve water-tight closure after spinal intradural surgery and can minimize the risk of intractable postoperative CSF leakage. This simple, economical technique is recommended for dural closure after spinal intradural surgery.
