Abstract
Synthetic dural substitutes composed of bioabsorbable polymers were used in 20 patients during neurosurgical operation. Clinical manifestations such as operative wound features, white blood cell counts, C-reactive protein, and computed tomography were evaluated after neurosurgical operations. Transient subcutaneous collection of cerebrospinal fluid was observed in three patients. No other significant complication was observed. This preliminary report indicates the effectveness of the bioabsorbable artifical dura mater without risking virally transmitted infection when compared with a cadaveric dura mater graft.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
