Technical Feasibility of TachoSil Application on Esophageal Anastomoses
Purpose. Sealing esophageal anastomoses with a sealant patch (TachoSil) containing human fibrinogen and thrombin may improve mechanical strength. The aim was to evaluate the technical feasibility of the application of a sealant patch in upper gastrointestinal surgery. Methods. In total 15 patients, 18-80 years old, undergoing thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy with esophagogastrostomy or laparos...
متن کاملConsiderations on cervical anastomoses in postcaustic esophageal reconstruction
BACKGROUND. The increased incidence of accidental or non-accidental ingestion of corrosive substances or drug compounds leading to postcaustic esophagitis represents a major public health issue. The treatment of postcaustic esophagitides is difficult and long lasting, calling for a complex team trained in this borderline pathology: gastroenterologist, general surgeon, otorhinolaryngologist, ane...
متن کاملInitial experience with proximal anastomoses performed with a mechanical connector.
BACKGROUND The Symmetry Bypass System Aortic Connector (St Jude Medical, Inc) is a novel device for the construction of sutureless proximal anastomoses. The connector allows attachment of saphenous vein grafts to the aorta without requiring aortic clamping. We report our initial clinical experience with this device. METHODS In a 2-month period from May to July 2001, a total of 139 consecutive...
متن کاملEnhancing Mechanical Strength of Inorganic Geopolymer by Using Phenol Resin
The effect of organic phenol on the compressive and flexural strength of a metakaolin based geopolymer is studied. It was found that 12 wt% phenol resins can increase the compressive and flexural strength by 30% and 65% respectively. In addition, the reinforcing effect of phenol resin is higher in Na-PS and Na-PSS type geopolymers rather than Na-PSDS. Two distinct endothermic peaks were detecte...
متن کاملMechanical properties of the esophageal wall.
Pressure-diameter curves of the esophagus were obtained to define its mechanical properties. The mucosal contribution to the strength of the esophagus was negligible until the outer diameter almost doubled, suggesting that small intraluminal pressures are held by the muscle layer alone. For larger deformations mucosal contribution increased and at failure the mucosa held over one-half of the fa...
