A 57-year-old female with a complex medical history, including diabetes, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and a 35-pack year smoking history, presented for repair of a pseudomeningocele following a previous L1-2 laminectomy and T10-S1 hardware removal.
The procedure consisted of excising the pseudomeningocele and performing a reconstruction with bilateral trapezius muscle flaps. A 36 cm² application of STRAVIX Tissue was placed over the repair before the muscle flaps were closed. A negative pressure dressing was applied after skin closure.
The immediate follow-up was unremarkable. At one month, the patient developed a small seroma after a fall, which resolved with aspiration. Full wound closure was achieved at one month.
