Abstract

Purpose

The objective of this work was to present possible, though rare, complications of Neuro-Patch® implantation after brain surgery.

Methods

Two patients, aged 62 and 63 years, who had a partial dural substitution with an artificial polyurethane graft after neurosurgical resection of a gross tumour, are presented.

Results

In the two patients, the avital tissue was infiltrated by either inflammatory or neoplastic tissue respectively.

Conclusions

This report demonstrates a new pathological point of view in using synthetic materials for the reconstruction of dural defects.
