溶媒乾燥硬膜挿入によるFrey症候群の予防法

抄録

We attempted to prevent Frey's syndrome by using solvent dehydrated human dura mater in the closing procedure after parotidectomy. The area was covered by the dura and sutured. The presence or absence of symptome was noted subjectively and by Minor's method. One out of 17 patients reported a positive symptom during the observation period of 6 to 35 months.
Neither foreign body reaction, infection nor other adverse reaction occured after the dura implantation. This method is useful in prevention of Frey's syndrome.
