This article, published in the Journal of Neurological Surgery, discusses the use of a polydioxanone suture (PDS) plate with a dural substitute for repairing anterior skull base defects. The study reviews a retrospective cohort series of 155 patients who underwent this technique and reports long-term outcomes. The results show that the PDS plate reconstruction is safe and effective, with a low rate of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and no cases of cranial nerve or internal carotid artery injury. The study also suggests that there may be a learning curve associated with this technique. [Extracted from the article] |
