Long term results with medpor <sup>®</sup> reconstruction of the anterior skull base at a single institute

Our experience of using medpor in anterior skull base reconstruction demonstrates that medpor is a readily available, easily handled, and reliable graft option with relatively low rates of infection and post-op CSF leak. Its use reduces the use of autologous graft materials and the associated donor site morbidity. Our long term follow up data further demonstrates the safety and efficacy of this technique.

Abstract

Our experience of using medpor in anterior skull base reconstruction demonstrates that medpor is a readily available, easily handled, and reliable graft option with relatively low rates of infection and post-op CSF leak. Its use reduces the use of autologous graft materials and the associated donor site morbidity. Our long term follow up data further demonstrates the safety and efficacy of this technique.
