Widespread distribution of lymphatic vessels in human dura mater remote from sinus veins

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Background and purpose: Previous experimental studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels are located primarily along the walls of the dural sinus veins.

Morpho-mechanical mapping of human dura mater microstructure

Acta Biomaterialia, 2023
The human dura mater is known to impact vastly traumatic brain injury mechanopathology. In spite of this involvement, dura mater is typically neglected in computational and physical human head models. The lack of location-dependent microstructural and related mechanical data of dura mater may be considered a rationale behind this simplification.

Tensile properties of human spinal dura mater and pericranium

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2022
Autologous pericranium is a promising dural graft material. An optimal graft should exhibit similar mechanical properties to the native dura, but the mechanical properties of human pericranium have not been characterized, and studies of the biomechanical

Biomechanics of vascular areas of the human cranial dura mater

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2022
Accurate biomechanical properties of the human cranial dura mater are paramount for computational head models, artificial graft developments and biomechanical basic research. Yet, it is unclear whether areas of the dura containing meningeal vessels biomechanically differ from avascular areas. Here, 244 dura mater samples with or without vessels from 32

Mechanical properties of human spinal dura mater show rate dependency

Scientific Reports
The spinal dura mater is a tough membrane protecting the spinal cord. Its mechanical response, particularly under dynamic loading conditions (e.g., during vehicular collisions), can lead to severe medical complications. However, the mechanical properties

Peptidomics insights: neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) related to the chronic subdural hemorrhage [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Chronic subdural hemorrhage (CSDH) refers to a hematoma with an envelope between the dura mater and the arachnoid membrane and is more common among the elderly.

DUROPLASTY: REVIEW OF MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUES

Східноукраїнський медичний журнал, 2022
In most cases, a dura mater defect is the result of a traumatic brain injury. Traumatic brain injury is an important issue, both medically and socio-economically, as it is accompanied by significant mortality and disability of patients of working age ...

The collagenic architecture of human dura mater [PDF]

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2011
Object Human dura mater is the most external meningeal sheet surrounding the CNS. It provides an efficient protection to intracranial structures and represents the most important site for CSF turnover. Its intrinsic architecture is made up of fibrous tissue including collagenic and elastic fibers that guarantee the maintenance of its biophysical ...
