Comparing the results of duraplasty using amniotic membrane versus pericranium as dural graft; concerning CSF leakage and pseudomeningocele

Purpose: In many brain surgeries, dura cannot be primarily repaired and it is necessary to use a graft. Appropriate repair of dura plays a major role in preventing CSF leakage and meningitis. In the cases where sufficient Pericranium is not available for recovery, we need to use graft from other resources. The present study compares the results of amniotic membrane dural graft and pericranium dural graft in terms of CSF leakage and...
