Compares vertical paramedian durotomy for reducing complications in selected lesions, suggesting improved safety and efficacy.
Vertical paramedian durotomy is a safe and effective alternative for selected midline posterior fossa lesions. By preserving the OS and simplifying dural reconstruction, it reduces the risk of cerebrospinal fluid-related complications and provides a straightforward method for achieving watertight closure. Larger prospective studies are warranted to further validate its long-term outcomes and broader applicability.
