BACKGROUND: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak remains a significant source of morbidity after neurosurgical procedures. The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a polyethylene glycol-coated collagen patch (PCC) in different neurosurgical procedures.
METHODS: A retrospective, single-center cohort study in patients who underwent a cranial neurosurgical procedure. After collecting multiple data variables, patients were divided into two groups depending on the use of PCC as sealant on dural closure following procedures.
RESULTS: Data from 230 patients were collected (PCC, 128; control group, 102). Incidence of CSF leakage was significantly lower in the PCC group (p < .001). Complications that were significantly lower in PCC than the control group included surgical infection (p = .022), and hydrocephalus (p = .017), as well as reduced rates of reintervention (p < .001) and shorter hospital stays (p = .028). Factors associated with a higher incidence of CSF leakage included posterior fossa procedures, reinterventions, and the need for CSF drainage placement. PCC reduced the risk of suffering CSF leakage by more than 75% (p = .002) once adjusted for age, surgical approach, type of cranial opening, reintervention, CSF drainage, dural substitute, and dural defect coverage.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings confirm PCC as an effective means of preventing CSF leakage following cranial neurosurgery with fewer associated complications.
