ABSTRACT
Previously presented data showed that Vicryl mesh was a potentially effective dural grafting material. It is easily handled, relatively inexpensive, absorbed over time, and elicits a minimal inflammatory response. The present experimental project was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of a tightly woven version of the material as a watertight seal and to evaluate its performance in the presence of pia arachnoid injury. The mesh formed a seal promptly and adhesion formation was slight. Tightly woven Vicryl mesh appears to have a significant potential as an absorbable dural substitute.
