fibrin glue is used for control of bleeding in various surgical procedures. in this work the ability of fibrin glue to seal punctures in the vascular system is demonstrated. blood samples were taken from rabbits, fibrinogen was separated and fibrin glue was eventually prepared. the rabbits were anesthetized and a midline incision was carried out. the heart and abdominal aorta were exposed. punc...

PURPOSE The aim of this prospective study was to compare the effectiveness of a 4.8% tranexamic acid mouthwash versus an autologous fibrin glue preparation to control hemostasis in patients therapeutically anticoagulated with warfarin who required dental extractions without interruption of their treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS The 49 patients who underwent 152 dental extractions were randomly...

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Esophageal leaks are a potentially life-threatening condition. One treatment option is injection therapy with commercially available fibrin glue. We describe herein a method to close esophageal leaks by injecting autologous fibrin glue prepared exclusively with the patient's own blood.

PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of autologous single-donor fibrin glue after tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-three patients were planned for tubeless PCNL in a prospective cohort study and randomized in two groups with or without using fibrin glue. Randomization method was based on the computer-generated random numbers. RESULTS Transfusion, urinary...

The purpose of this review is to have an overview on the applications on the autologous fibrin glue as a bone graft substitute in maxillofacial injuries and defects. A search was conducted using the databases such as Medline or PubMed and Google Scholar for articles from 1985 to 2016. The criteria were "Autograft," "Fibrin tissue adhesive," "Tissue engineering," "Maxillofacial injury," and "Reg...

evaluation of autogenous fibrinogen extracted from horse blood in fibrin glue and it's effects on horse's fibroblast and keratinocyte cells were preformed. fibrinogen has been obtained by glycine precipitation technique from horse's blood. fibroblast cells were separated by explant culture method from neck skin and keratinocytes were separated by enzyme digestion from lib samples...

BACKGROUND Hemorrhages, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistula and infections are the most challenging postoperative complications in Neurosurgery. In this study, we report our preliminary results using a fully autologous fibrin sealant agent, the Vivostat(®) system, in achieving hemostasis and CSF leakage repair during cranio-cerebral procedures. METHODS From January 2012 to March 2014, 77 patien...
