A comparative study of a novel absorbable cranial flap fixation system and Aesculap CranioFix.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Absorbable cranial flap fixation products, represented by Aesculap^® CranioFix absorbable clamp, are widely used in neurosurgery. However, the product has some shortcomings, as it is not entirely biodegradable, the lower disc's angle cannot be adjusted, and there is a failure to readjust after fixation. To address these issues, MedArt Technology Co., Ltd. from China has come up with a high-purity PLLA combined with an innovative structural design to develop a novel cranial flap fixation system that is more convenient to operate, has a better resetting effect, and can be fully absorbed. This study aims to verify its safety and effectiveness through in vitro experiments and clinical trials.

Methods

In this study, the absorbable cranial flap fixation system
