ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the causes of dual damage during lumbar disc surgery and to probe the prevention and treatment of cerebrospinal fluid leakage after surgery.Methods Clinical materials of 19 cases suffered from cerebrospinal fluid leakage after surgery from March 1997 to October 2001 were retrospectively analyzed.Result Eighteen out of 19 patients were cured by conservative measurements while one was reoperatived for repairing dura mater.Conclusions The rate of cerebrospinal fluid leakage can be decreased by detailed preoperative preparation and strict operation; repairing dura mater in operation and regular conservative treatment after operation can cure most of cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Few cases failing to conservative treatment need reoperation for repairing dura mater.
