[Dural defect closure after resection of cranioorbital meningiomas]. / Rekonstruktsiya defektov tverdoi mozgovoi obolochki posle udaleniya kranioorbital'nykh meningiom.

Dural defect closure after resection of cranioorbital meningiomas has its own specifics. Extended malignant lesions and common large bone defects involving various anatomical regions require multiple implants or implants with complex geometry. The features of this stage of reconstruction were described in the previous issue of the Burdenko Journal of Neurosurgery. At the same time, contact of implant with nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses dictates additional requirements for tightness of soft tissue reconstruction and inertness of material. In this review, we describe modern and historically interesting methods of reconstruction of soft tissue defects following resection of cranioorbital meningioma. OBJECTIVE: To summarize and analyze available literature data on reconstruction of soft tissue defects following resection of cranioorbital meningioma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The authors reviewed available data on reconstruction of soft tissue defects after resection of cranioorbital meningiomas. Effectiveness of reconstruction techniques and safety of materials were analyzed. RESULTS: The authors analyzed 42 available full-text articles. Features of growth and natural course of cranioorbital meningioma, methods of soft tissue defects closure, modern materials and sealing compositions are described. Considering these data, the authors proposed the algorithms for selecting materials for dural reconstruction after resection of cranioorbital meningioma. CONCLUSION: Improvement of surgical technique, development of new materials and technologies increase the efficiency and safety of dural defect closure. Nevertheless, high incidence of complications associated with dura mater repair necessitates further research in this area.
