Using biomaterials and regenerative medicine to repair tissue defects has been a very hot research field, during which the development of stable large animal models with appropriate biotechnology is crucial. Recently, more and more researchers are paying attention to dural defect repair. However, the lack of widely recognized stable large animal models has seriously affected the related further research. In this study, a stable large animal dural defect model is developed exactly for the first time. Therefore, the article would attract considerable attention and be highly cited after publication.
Keywords: dural defect; large animal model; repair materials; surgical methods.
