The incidence of dural tear increases with a history of prior surgery in the same area from scar formation. A dural tear is a relatively minor complication of spine surgery that rarely causes a long term problem. The dura membrane can leak after surgery however if a small hole is present. Suturing the small rent in the dura generally repairs this problem. The nerve roots can be exposed with a larger dural tear.
