A protection device is disclosed to minimise post-operative adhesions formed by scar tissue between adjacent tissues such as the spinal dura and overlying muscle, thereby facilitating revision surgery. The device is in the form of a shield (10), with a substantially oblong and preferably arched main body which may be placed over the spinal dura, and a pair of support planes (12) which may rest against the vertebral bone. <IMAGE> |
