I am wondering what you all know in regards to dural grafts. I am scheduled for decompression surgery June 4th and this doc uses bovine grafts. I have done some reading and it looks like there have been some problems with severe scar tissue build up on the bovine material, leading to more surgery.
Thanks for your input! Kris |

Welcome to Neruo Talk. Do bring up your concerns to your doctor, and point out what you have been reading. I had donor bone grafts and I did just find with those. I didn't have the bovine. Ask him all your questions and feel good about what you are going to do and be confident. I am fused C3-7 and have the grafts between all. I wish you all the best for your surgery. ginnie
