While a neurosurgeon approximates and everts the dural margins, always observing that there no nearby nerve fascicles that the U-clip might trap, another neurosurgeon applies the U-clip at the dural borders. The application of the U-clip by a single neurosurgeon is complex and can lead to incorrect positioning, especially of the first U-clips. Due to the U-clips design, to facilitate their correct application, the dural margins must be brought completely together. Between 6 and 9 U-clips were used per centimetre (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0015">Fig. 3</a>). No additional tissue sealant was applied to the dura when U-clips were used.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0015"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The dura of the thoracic and cervical spine (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0020">Fig. 4</a>A and B) is thicker and less fragile than that of the lumbar spinal region. Its resistance to traction is greater, so the application of the U-clips is more complex than that in other spinal regions. For the correct use of the U-clips, the correct exposure and eversion of both dural edges must be performed. The number of U-clips applied for dural closure in the cervical region was higher than that in the thoracic and lumbar region to overcome the resistance of the dural approximation and prevent the opening and coming out of the U-clip. The resistance of this type of clip to open, due to its flat surface when closed, allows it to overcome the resistance in the cervical and thoracic regions, producing a completely hermetic closure The design of the applicator we used at our institution only allowed us to reach areas where the dural edges were widely exposed. After the dural closure, valsalva manoeuvre with 25–30<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cmH<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span>O was performed. No leakage of CSF was observed. The use of this type of applicator and U-clip for the repair of dural damage in lateral regions is very complex. If there is no correct visualization of the intradural structures below the dural borders where the clip is applied, nerve structures could be damaged. It is also necessary to get a good eversion of the dural edges, and this is usually complicated in lateral regions of the dura. The application of the clip in the dural tear in minimally invasive spinal surgery of the herniated disc was not satisfactory. The dural tear was closed with interrupted suture, muscle, and tissue sealant. In surgeries where a duraplasty was performed, the U-clips were not used. The closure was carried out with suture and tissue sealant. The applicator of our Institution does not allow applying the U-clip with low angulation, so that the duraplasties cannot be closed satisfactorily. This applicator is not effective when it is not applied almost perpendicularly in the dorsal region.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0020"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">One patient was operated on for tumour recurrence 9 months later.

However, they encountered problems with the design of the applicator and the clip and problems related to dural laceration by the clip. In 1999, Palm et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> reported that, in their experimental study with animal models, there was a less inflammatory reaction to duraplasty in adjacent tissues in cases where the non-penetrating titanium clip was applied than in those where sutures were employed. They used the clip with an automatic applicator (DuraClose; Surgical Dynamics, Norwalk, USA). In 2007, Timothy et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0190"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> reported a high incidence of CSF leakage (13.7%) from 1 to 34 days post-surgery (mean, 8 days) in a series of 58 adult patients on whom dural closure with the titanium clip had been performed. In 2010, Kaufman et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></a> described a series of 27 paediatric patients in whom the non-penetrating titanium clips had been applied (AnastoClip Vessel Closure System, LeMaitre Vascular, Inc.

In 2015, using the same clips, Ito et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0210"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a> observed a leakage rate of 3.2% in a series of 31 cases.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The CSF leakage with continuous suture or loose stitches using 4-0 to 6-0 polypropylene monofilament or nylon suture is about 8%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0220"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20–22</span></a> No CSF cutaneous-dural fistula was observed in the days after surgery.

Although the intradural area is reduced after the placement of the U-clips, especially when considering the Ligamentous interfacet distance, and the anterior-posterior diameter of the dural sac; In the control MRI, no CSF absence was observed around the spinal cord in the U-clip placement regions (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#fig0020">Figs. 4A and 5D</a>). No symptoms of spinal cord compression were observed during follow-up in any patient. We can say that although there is a reduction of the intradural area, this has not had a clinical effect. The intraoperative valsalva manoeuvre confirmed the hermetic closure without CSF leakage.</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The application of the U-clip presents more complexity if the dural edges are not in the dorsal dural region and if the dural edges cannot be approximated and everted, for example, in lateral dural damage in minimally invasive surgeries. Ferroli et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0240"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a> described the use of the U-clip for dural damage repair in minimally invasive disc herniation surgeries. Its use was attempted during two instances of surgery to repair dural damage in the lateral region, in front of the pedicle, in minimally invasive disc hernia surgery. However, this approach was abandoned as it was not possible to evert and approximate the dural edges. The placement of the U-clip parallel to the axial plane with our applicator was very complex in minimally invasive surgeries. The dural damage was closed with interrupted suture, 5.0.</p><p id="par0095" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When the dural edges are close, the U-clips can be applied quickly, so they save surgical time. Their simple application reduces the surgical learning curve in dural closure and decreases the risk of CSF leakage when younger surgeons perform the procedure. In addition, removing them once they have been placed is not a problem. The dural edges can heal without the interposition of foreign material. We believe that the advantage of this type of clip is that when closed, its internal face is completely flat, this allows to overcome greater intradural resistances. The application of the U-clip in the cervical and thoracic spinal region, where the dural tension is greater and the edges are wider, is not a problem either.</p><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The clips are completely compatible with MRI. The U-clips produce a small artefact in the post-operative images.

This gave rise to a disadvantage: a second neurosurgeon was needed to approximate the dural edges, and the U-clips had to be applied very close to each other, so many U-clips were needed for correct dural closure. Perhaps an improvement in their design could eliminate these characteristics and encourage more neurosurgeons to use them.</p><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The cost of the U-clip applicator is 60 times more expensive than 1 single suture. However, to evaluate the effectiveness in terms of cost, safety and complication of the suture dural closure compared to the application of U-clips, the cost of the U-Clip applicator or the number of sutures used must be considered; but also factors such as the dural closure time used with each technique, and the cost for the treatment of complications caused by cerebrospinal fluid fistula. For this, a prospective randomized, double blind study should be performed.</p></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0110">Conclusions</span><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Based on our limited observation, flat titanium non-penetrating U-clips of this type are useful and safe for spinal dural closure to prevent CSF leakage regardless of the number of levels and the spinal region in which they are applied. They are easy to use, especially if the surgical field is large, and they are used in the posterior dural region. Better adaptation of the applicator and the clip for use in spinal surgery after durotomies could increase the use of the clips, facilitating a multicentric study to corroborate their safety and the advantages of using them over the suture closure technique.</p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0115">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">No personal, professional or financial conflicts of interest to report.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:12 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1209848" "titulo" => "Abstract" "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0005" "titulo" => "Background" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0010" "titulo" => "Objective" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0015" "titulo" => "Methods" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0020" "titulo" => "Results" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0025" "titulo" => "Conclusions" ] ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1126399" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1209849" "titulo" => "Resumen" "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0030" "titulo" => "Introducción" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0035" "titulo" => "Objetivo" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0040" "titulo" => "Métodos" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0045" "titulo" => "Resultados" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0050" "titulo" => "Conclusiones" ] ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1126398" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 5 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Methods" "secciones" => array:2 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "U-clip application.
