Abstract

Dural suturing is one of the most robust reconstruction methods in transsphenoidal surgery; however, the technique is considered difficult, primarily due to the restricted range of needle movement. We performed dural threading during transsphenoidal surgery by holding the needle with forceps as a hook and moving the needle in a distal to proximal direction. Our dural suturing technique is simple and quick. It can be used not only for dural closure but also for other procedures, such as controlling haemostasis from the intercavernous sinus and dural tenting.
