Most important principle in recurrent surgery

Always have exposure more than the previous exposure.
Definitely have the bony margins exposed. If needed extend the craniotomy or laminotomy.
Definitely have normal dura exposed above and below the level of previous dural exposure. Without following these principles it is not possible to have safe surgery.
These principles hold good for both brain and spine surgery.
