Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the application of enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuro-patch in standardize large decompressive craniectomy (SLDC).MethodsTwenty-one patients (observation group) who needed a SLDC for various reasons were treated with radial incision in dura to release the high intracranial pressure and enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuropatch from March 2009 to June 2010.The neuro-patch were used as the dural substitutes.Twenty-one patients were treated with SLDC only for the similar reasons (control group).General healing effects were compared betweentwo groups.ResultsIn 6 hours and 72 hours after surgery,the rate of obvious effectiveness in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group [33.33%(7/21 ) vs.14.29%(3/21 ),33.33%(7/21 ) vs.19.05%(4/21 ) 、61.90%( 13/21 ) vs.28.57%(6/21 ),61.90%( 13/21 ) vs.38.10%(8/21 )](P < 0.05).The rate of intracranial infection,cerebrospinal leak and epilepsy in observation group [0,0,4.76% ( 1/21 )]was significantly lower than that in control group [14.29% (3/21),14.29% (3/21),19.05% (4/21)](P <0.05).The rate of subcutaneous or subdural cerebrospinal fluid accumulation,cenencephalocele,cerebral ventricular malformation,brain hernia through the skull window had no significant difference between two groups [19.05%(4/21 ),0,4.76%( 1/21 ),0 in observation group;23.81%(5/21 ),9.52%(2/21 ),9.52%(2/21 ),4.76%( 1/21 ) in control group) (P > 0.05 ).After followed up of 6-12 months,the rate of the well general outcome in observation group was significantly better than that in control group [85.71% ( 18/21 ) vs.71.43% ( 15/21 )](P < 0.05 ).The rate of moderate-critical function handicapped in control group was significantly higher than that in observation group [23.81%(5/21 ) vs.9.52%(2/21 )](P<0.05 ).ConclusionsThe SLDC is effective for decreasing the intracranial pressure,and the enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuro-patch can improve the efficiency and decrease the incidence of complicating diseases.This therapy can improve the patients' general quality of survival and is worth to be popularized in clinic.
