DuraStat Dural Repair Device

Incidental Durotomy (ID) incidences range between 1% to 10% across all spine procedures,with the percentage increasing to 29% for revision cases—the highest incidences of dural tears in the lumbar spine.

Persistent Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leaks occur in 9-21% of lumbar cases with ID, leading to poor outcomes for patients and additional costs for healthcare providers.

Goals of dural repair include the management and containment of nerve roots with watertight closure to allow early mobilization of the patient, helping reduce length of stay and costly complications resulting from delayed ambulation after surgery.
