 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 6 Mathematical evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of various methods of dural incision Author: Qi-Lun Peng Weiguo Zhou Zhen Dong Chen [Abstract] cut dura mater in neurosurgery, there are different methods. Under the same conditions, how to assess what the most scientific method, using a reasonable application of mathematics, may be an accurate and objective standard answer. [Keywords:] mathematics; evaluation; dural incision method; advantages and disadvantages of Dura cut a certain way the principle, according to lesion location, anatomy and surgical exposure requirements, use of different cut method [1 ~ 3], such as ‘10’ the word law, the wrong cross-Law, U-type or U-shaped, H-shaped , I type, arc, etc., but each method has advantages and disadvantages; there is no single criteria for evaluation. In this study, pairs of ‘Y’ shaped incision [4] and compare the distance of several other major length, with plane geometry, computer-aided design (CAD) and other mathematical methods to prove that pairs of ‘Y’ law is a square bone window of the most scientific and reasonable cut line. A mathematical comparison method Bone window on the screen fully exposed dura incision method, the main common double ‘Y’ method, the diagonal method, the wrong cross-Law, U-type method. When the bone window was square or rectangular, the pairs of ‘Y’ law cut the dura mater line in Figure 1. Specific cut line: In the bone window is square, the middle of the dura mater and bone parallel to cut edge, such as the bone window was a rectangle, the middle line with the long edge parallel to edge of bone; starting and ending points, respectively, angle cut to the bone window on both sides of the incision line and the right side of the angle was 30 degrees. Exposed to the full scope of the Act, but cut the total distance of the shortest, trauma, suturing a short time, because the cut-point into a corner, easy to find pairs of co-points to the co-accurate,
