Suturable DuraGen® matrix
Limit uncertainty with the resistance to suturing offered by Suturable DuraGen® matrix.
As one of the pioneers in regenerative collagen medicine and thanks to its Ultra Pure Collagen™ technology, Integra proposes Duraplasty Solution™ for natural dural regeneration and CSF leakages prevention.
Features
- Bilayer matrix: Suturable DuraGen® matrix combines the conformability of DuraGen® Plus matrix in addition to its suturability.
- Enhanced graft strength: Suturable DuraGen® matrix features an enhanced strength component (NeuraGen®) providing the graft the possibility of mechanical anchoring for challenging procedures.
Indications
Suturable DuraGen® is indicated as a dural substitute for the repair and restoration of dural defects in cranial and spinal surgical procedures. Suturable DuraGen® readily conforms to the surface of the brain and overlying tissues. Suturable DuraGen® may be used to close dural defects following traumatic injury, excision, retraction or shrinkage. Suturable DuraGen® may be used to supplement primary closure.
- Suturable DuraGen® may be used in the following procedures:
- Cranial Convexity: may be used to cover large defects following surgery, especially for dural loss from excision, contraction, retraction and/or shrinkage;
- Brain Swelling: intra-operative brain swelling or anticipated postoperative swelling;
- Posterior Fossa Surgery: 1) General use as a dural graft, 2) decompression craniectomy and dural release for infarcts, i.e., Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery (PICA) infarcts, 3) anticipated swelling after trauma, and 4) may be used in Chiari decompression procedures;
- Spinal Surgery: 1) General use as a spinal dural graft, especially useful for defects arising from pinhole tears, disc surgery, and spinal stenosis decompression, 2) after resection of intradural tumors, 3) Onlay graft after dural approximation with sutures, and 4) as a separation layer between the dura and overlying tissues.
Contraindications
Suturable DuraGen® is not designed, sold or intended for use except as described in the indications for use and is contraindicated in the following situations:
- For patients with a known history of hypersensitivity to bovine derived materials.
- Should be used with caution in infected regions.
