The FDA has approved marketing of Covidien’s DuraSeal spine sealant as an adjunct to suturing for intra-operative dural sealing in spine procedures, according to a release from Covidien.
The Mansfield, Mass.-based company says DuraSeal is designed to be a quicker solution than conventional sealing methods for surgeons who are faced with a dural tear.
The FDA approved the same formulation in 2005 for cranial procedures.
