Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The papers propose a new method to prevent postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Doctors use the absorbable polyglycolic acid (PGA) and fibrin glue to repair in surgery, prevent cerebrospinal fluid leakage and reduce the necessity of postoperative lumbar drainage after surgery. This study will analyze the changes in cerebrospinal fluid leakage in patients with pituitary tumors and skull base tumors after surgery, and further understand the effectiveness of Neoveil , as the basis for the development of new treatments.
