I have heard some rather disturbing news lately and would like to have

some feedback.

I heard that the bovine graft when used in Chiari surgery only has a

life of about +/- 2 years. Has anyone else heard about this? I plan on

asking people in the med community to find out more, but I wanted to

know if anyone else here has heard about this.
