12-year Retrospective Analysis of 2,993 Consecutive Skull Base Cases

Costs of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage: 1-year, retrospective analysis of 412 consecutive nontrauma cases.

BACKGROUND Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks are widely recognized as commonly occurring postoperative complications of neurosurgical procedures. We will focus on the direct costs associated with CSF leaks in a single center across multiple neurosurgical procedures, based on a retrospective analysis. We will also compare the costs of using a synthetic agent to prevent such leaks with these costs ...
