Default Dura tare.

8 months ago my husband was hit in the eye and the entire orbital socket was crushed. From this he had eye socket surgery and it was noticed shortly after he was leaking spinal fluid from his sinuses. He underwent a crainiotomy to fix a large fracture at the top of the eye socket and the tare in the dura was one inch by one inch. They thought that the leak would be stopped by this surgery. However he hemoraged and they had to go back in 48 hours later to repair the new damage. Its been nearly two months since the two surgeries and now he has spinal fluid leaking out his nose once again. Does anyone know of a permanent fix. This leaking leaves him light headed and feeling generally miserable.
