Benefits of technology

[0020]Note that the artificial dura biomedical device further comprises a plurality of pads and a ring, the pads are installed on the ring, the ring binds the artificial dura and the partial skull, and the pads are installed between the connecting element and the artificial dura for increasing friction.

Problems solved by technology

Clinically, common problems include a long surgery procedure and an inconvenient operation so that surgery risk increases.
However, non-suture dura has bad fixity so that the dura easily moves and cerebrospinal fluid leaks.

Abstract

An artificial dura biomedical device and a brain surgery method utilizing the same are disclosed. The steps includes: fixing an artificial dura to a partial skull; and fixing the partial skull with the artificial dura to a cut hole of a whole skull. The artificial dura biomedical device includes an artificial dura and a connecting element. The connecting element fixes the partial skull with the artificial dura.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 141,610, filed on Dec. 30, 2008, the entirety of which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to an artificial dura biomedical device and a brain surgery method utilizing the same.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]During cerebral neurosurgery, a skull must be sawed and a dura must be broken. After finishing the cerebral neurosurgery, a surgeon uses dura substitutes to repair the broken dura. Clinically, the dura substitutes may be made of natural and synthetic materials, for example autografts, allografts, xenografts, absorbable or unabsorbable polymers. The dura substitutes help to prevent infection, bad tissue response, leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, and cerebral tissue adhesion. Further, the dura substitutes promote tissue regeneration of dura mater.[0006]The du...
