1 gru 2020 · Brain duraplasty is a dura mater reconstruction procedure conducted following the failure of conventional primary dural closure. The surgeon selects the material to be used during the procedure from allo-, auto-, xenograft or synthesis, based on unclear criteria.
20 lip 2021 · Suboccipital decompression with duraplasty is a widely accepted method for treating patients with Chiari malformation type I. However, important details of the duraplasty technique are still...
15 kwi 2023 · The “drum skin” technique for duraplasty has been developed to achieve a watertight dural closure and tent the dural substitute, as shown by the endoscopic visualization (Fig. 5), reducing the risk of CSF leakage and arachnoidal adhesions.
8 kwi 2016 · Duraplasty. A reconstructive surgical technique where by the dura (outermost membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord) is opened and a graft (patch) is placed to allow for more room.

We find that duraplasty is essential for successful Chiari surgery because it creates an artificial cisterna magna where one was not previously present. Opening of the arachnoid varies by surgeon.
A variety of surgical techniques for CM-I have been used, and there is a controversy whether to use posterior fossa decompression with duraplasty (PFDD) or posterior fossa decompression without duraplasty (PFD) in CM-I patients. Here, we compared the clinical results and effectiveness of PFDD and PFD in adult patients with CM-I.
