A canine lumbar laminotomy and discectomy model was used to evaluate the effects of a resorbable gel, ADCON-L (Gliatech Inc., Cleveland, OH), in reducing peridural scar formation and to assess the healing progress of immediately adjacent normal structures. ⋯ ADCON-L reduced local peridural fibrosis after lumbar laminotomy and discectomy without impacting the healing of the surrounding tissues.
