Introduction The external membrane which invests the brain is called the cranial dura mater. It consists of a periosteal layer, which is rich in blood and lymphatic vessels and nerves, and an inner layer named the meningeal layer. At certain places the periosteal and meningeal layers are separated to form the dural venous sinuses. This is the typical description of the cranial dura mater [1–15]...

BACKGROUND The membranous structure of vestibular schwannoma is an important factor in its surgical treatment. Herein, we report intraoperative and microscopic findings relating to an outermost dura-like membrane in cases of vestibular schwannoma and the importance of these findings. METHODS Intraoperative findings of 16 cases of vestibular schwannoma treated with an initial surgery were stud...

Abstract The utilization of oil palm shell (OPS) in concrete dates back since four decades ago. While most research has only been done on the Dura-OPS as coarse aggregate concrete, few Tenera-OPS. Tenera-OPS is obtained by a hybrid crossbreeding between Dura and Pisifera type fruits to obtain thinner fruit produce 30% more oil. different physical properties compared Dura-OPS, which could alter ...

Importance A growing number of neurologic treatments rely on neural implants capable of delivering electrical and chemical stimulation to targeted regions of the central nervous system for extended periods. Objective To assess the potential of a novel class of multimodal neural implants, termed electronic dura mater or e-dura, to fulfill this need. Evidence Review Results from preclinical a...

Background: Dura substitutes are commonly required to repair the dura mater during routine neurosurgical procedures. Biologic materials composed of xenogenic collagen represent the most prevalent dura substitute, yet often incite undesirable tissue responses that impair wound healing. New materials are therefore needed to overcome the shortcomings of existing products and facilitate effective a...
