ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of the sandwich method (medical glue +gelatin sponge+medical glue) in the repair of spinal dura mater to prevent the cerebrospinal fluid leakage.Methods From February 2007 to June 2011,54 patients with spinal subdural tumors underwent excision of tumor in our hospital.According to manner of repairing spinal dura mater,all patients were classified into two groups:routine group and sandwich group.There were 16 males and 7 females with an average age of 45.2±7.2 years in the routine group,while 19 males and 12 females with an average age of 44.2±6.4 years in sandwich group.In routine group,the spinal dura mater was repaired through running locked suture.In sandwich group,the spinal dura mater was repaired through running locked suture,painting medical glue around the dural incision,covering with gelatin sponge,and painting medical glue on the surface and margin of gelatin sponge successively.Results Compared with the routine group,the total volume of postoperative drainage in sandwich group decreased significantly on the very day,the first day,the second day,and the third day,and the incidence of cerebrospinal fluid leakage decreased significantly.Before discharge,hydrops happened in 3 cases in the routine group,and got well through aspiration,continuous pressure by sandbag,and prone position.Three months after operation,5 cases from the routine group got deep hydrops under the incision and no treatment was applied to them.There was no obvious abnormality in the sandwich group.Conclusion The sandwich method can improve the repair effect of spinal dura mater injury,reduce the volume of postoperative drainage,and decrease the incidence of cerebrospinal fluid leakage
