Aims: To evaluate the utility of endoscopic obliterative therapy with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (tissue adhesives) for gastrointestinal varices and to investigate the incidence of serious complications. Methods: Endoscopic obliterative therapy with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate was performed on 228 gastrointestinal variceal patients; 221 gastric varices, 5 duodenal varices, and 2 anastomotic varices af...

Aims: To assess N-2-butyl cyanoacrylate injection’s effectiveness and safety in the treatment of gastric varix hemorrhage. Methods: Endoscopic with N-Butyl-2-cyanoacrylate injection was performed on 32 patients (21 males 11 females) variceal bleeding. The socioeconomic status patients, initial hemostasis, rebleeding rate, complications, mortality rate were all reviewed retrospectively. Patients...

Abstract Background Gastric variceal bleeding is associated with a high mortality rate, and sclerotherapy using N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate the treatment of choice. The risk recurrent bacteremia after injection has rarely been reported. We aimed to evaluate frequency this complication in real-world setting. Methods analyzed retrospective data from single-center cohort patients liver cirrhosis who u...

We report a new method of fixation of osteochondral fractures using tissue adhesive butyl-2-cyanoacrylate. A traumatic osteochondral fracture of the patella and the medial femoral condyle in a 29-year-old male was fixed with butyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive. At 6 month follow-up the fractures showed complete healing, the postoperative knee score was 84 and the functional knee score 90 (Kne...

Background. Injection with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate is a proven and successful therapeutic modality for treatment of patients with bleeding gastric varices. However, a variety of complications have also been associated with its use. Here, we report a rare case of retrogastric abscess which occurred almost six months after this therapy. This abscess was attributed to the hampered microbial cleara...

Objective: This study aims to reveal the effects of cyanoacrylate application at recipient bed and donor site in free gingival graft surgery on dimensions, clinical healing parameters patient-based outcomes. 
 Methods: Free operations were conducted individuals who randomly assigned control or test groups. In group, was stabilized coated with cyanoacrylate. 6/0 polyvinylidene fluoride sutu...

Alkyl cyanoacrylates are interesting products for use in industry because of their properties enabling them to stick together a wide range of substrates. n-Butyl cyanoacrylate is one of the most successfully used tissue adhesives in the field of medicine because it exhibits bacteriostatic and haemostatic characteristics, in addition to its adhesive properties. At present, its synthesis is perfo...

The techniques used and the outcome in eyes treated for retinal detachment associated with choroidal coloboma are described. We reviewed the medical reports on five eyes of five patients with retinal detachment associated with choroidal coloboma who underwent vitrectomy. Retinal breaks were identified at the margin of or within the coloboma and the retina was successfully reattached by vitrecto...

The purpose of this article is to describe acute complications associated with adhesive cyanoacrylate deposition in the peripheral circulation and their management. Despite best efforts, n-butyl cyanoacrylate glue embolization is inherently unpredictable and complications do occur. An understanding of preparation techniques that minimize adverse event rates and the technical skillset required t...
