[Materials using in the prevention of scar formation after laminectomy]

The recurrent syndrome after laminectomy is related to the scar formation overlying epidural. To solve this catastrophic problem means to prevent the fibrosis. In the present review a variety of materials used in the inhibition or prevention of that syndrome are introduced, and their effects are reviewed and discussed. Some characteristics of the materials for prevention are summarized, and in our experiments the material point of view is rational.
