Posterior Fossa Dura Onarımında “İç Kapak” Yöntemi: Cerrahi Teknik ve Tek Merkezli Klinik Tecrübemiz

Abstract

Aim: Failure in reconstruction of dura in posterior fossa surgeries may result in cerebrospinal fluid leakage and thus hinder wound healing and increase surgical morbidity rate. The aim of this study was to describe a new duraplasty method termed as “inner flap” method and reporting our clinical experience by comparing the results of this method with other standard classical duraplasty procedures. Material and Method: Thirty patients operated due to posterior fossa pathology were included in our study. These patients were divided into 2 groups whose duras were reconstructed by standard method (Group 1) and our technique “inner flap” (Group 2). Results: In 3 patients whose duras were reconstructed by standard technique (Group 1), cerebrospinal leakage was observed while none of the patients in group 2 had any wound healing problems. Mean average hospital stay of patients in group 2 was calculated 7 days shorter than patients in group 1. Conclusion: Most important advantage of our technique is that it provides closing minor holes due to suture needle by intact dura. Our technique is a safe method due to its effectivity and applicability.
