  • Title: Hemostatic agents and tissue glues in urologic injuries and wound healing.
    Author: Evans LA, Morey AF.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 2006 Feb; 33(1):1-12, v. PubMed ID: 16488275.
    Abstract:
    Biosurgical preparations designed to promote surgical hemostasis and tissue adhesion are now available to the urologist and are increasingly being used across all surgical disciplines. Fibrin sealant and gelatin thrombin matrix are the two most widely used bio-surgical adjuncts in urology. Complex reconstructive, oncologic, and laparoscopic genitourinary procedures are those most appropriate for sealant use. This article details the diverse urologic applications of biosurgical products in the management of urologic injuries and the promotion of wound healing.
