Executive Summary
Following a World Health Organisation recommendation, the Japanese Ministry of Health has banned all use of human dura mater. Japan is a significant market for one manufacturer, Biodynamics, which intends to protest to the WHO. In a separate development, Biodynamics has struck a deal with Muscoloskeletal Transplant Foundation which will recover dura mater tissue in the US and pass it to Biodynamics for processing.
