The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ArtiFascia® in comparison with commercially available dural substitutes in subjects requiring Dural repair following neurosurgery. Subjects with planned cranial neurosurgery participated in this study. During the surgery the dura is likely to be cut and damaged. A damaged dura can cause a leakage of brain fluids (cerebrospinal fluid \[CSF\] leakage) and increase the risk of infections. The damaged dura can be fixed with dural patch like ArtiFascia®. ArtiFascia® is a bioabsorbable medical synthetic dural replacement that aids in the regeneration of a new dura. Furthermore, it incorporates a sealing layer capable of minimizing CSF leakage and infection.
