Tearing and difficulty in handling
of onlay dural substitutes can be a costly, frustrating
and time consuming part of duraplasty procedures. Fortunately,
today’s neurosurgeons have a new option, DURAFORM™ Dural
Graft Implant. Manufactured using a patent-pending process,
it has better handling characteristics and greater tear
resistance than other onlay dural graft materials. As
a result, DURAFORM holds up to wet handling and forceps
manipulation.
Designed for neurosurgeons and their
nursing staff, the BIOPLATE® Fixation System is a versatile
and cost-effective system providing a simple and quick
way to achieve rigid fixation of the cranial skeleton.
Discover the very latest in plating technology in an easy-to-use,
single compact set.

The CRANIOSORB™ Absorbable Fixation
System (AFS) is the next generation in plating systems
dedicated specifically to the needs of the neurosurgeon.
The system is uniquely designed to offer simple and reproducible
fixation of the cranial flap and allow for complete absorption
of the plating system over time.
CRANIOSORB™ AFS Plates are made from PRIMACRYL™,
a patented JOHNSON & JOHNSON absorbable material. PRIMACRYL™
offers a visual cue allowing the neurosurgeon to contour
plates and meshes to the desired shape of the cranium
without damaging them unknowingly.
CRANIOPLASTIC® is a fast setting resinous
material for repairing cranial defects, usually used with
a titanium mesh. The kit includes two complete sets which
consist of two bags of sterile powder, two vials of sterile
liquid, and two sterile matrix bags.

The ETHISORB™ Dura Patch is a
synthetic absorbable implant for the bridging of
Dura Mater encephali and spinalis defects. It is
a composite of the following materials:
- A fleece of undyed VICRYL (Polyglactin
910) and undyed PDS (Poly-P-Dioxanon)
- A PDS foil, dyed with D&C Violet
No.2 (Color Index No. 60725)
On one side the porous structure
of the VICRYL fleece allows tissue on-growth while
the PDS film coating minimizes leakage of cerebrospinal
fluid. Absorption is essentially complete approximately
90 days after implantation.
Included in this convenient three-piece
Craniotomy Kit are a Disposable Perforator, a Cranio-blade
and a Wire Pass Drill. Manufactured to standards
that have made Codman synonymous with quality, the
CODMAN® Craniotomy Kit is unsurpassed for convenience
and performance in the operating room.
