Abstract:

Objective

To compare the short-term efficacy, postoperative complications, operative time, and long-term outcomes of using different materials of artificial dura for duraplasty or outer dural layer incision after posterior fossa decompression in patients with Chiari malformation type Ⅰ(CM-Ⅰ).

Methods

A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 169 patients with CM-I treated at Neurosurgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from September 2012 to December 2023.Among them,30 patients underwent posterior fossa decompression+outer dural layer incision (group A), and 139 patients underwent posterior fossa decompression + duraplasty (group B), including 61 patients using collagen-based biological dura (group B1); 59 patients using polyester urethane fiber synthetic dura (group B2);and 19 patients using artificial dura composed of Polyglactin910 sutures and Polydioxanone (PDO) sutures (group B3). The postoperative short - term Tator scores,complications,surgical time,and long-term prognosis of four groups were compared.

Results

There was no statistically significant difference in the short-term efficacy, improvement rate, and complication rates between group A and groups B1, B2, and B3 (P0.05). The median surgical time of group A was shorter than that of groups B1, B2, and B3, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The evaluation results of CCOS score and Tator score showed that the improvement rate and progression rate of group A were higher than those of groups B1, B2, and B3, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);there was no statistically significant differences among the B1,B2,and B3 groups(P0.05).

Conclusion

In CM-I patients,dural outer layer incision following posterior fossa decompression has a relatively shorter surgical time and better long-term outcomes compared to expanded duraplasty with different dural materials.
