Title: Fibrin seal application. Clinical experience. Author: Meisner H, Struck E, Schmidt-Habelmann P, Sebening F. Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1982 Aug; 30(4):232-3. PubMed ID: 6182634. Abstract: Clinical experience with fibrin gluing in cardiovascular surgery now extends over 4 years. The adhesive has been employed prophylactically for preclotting of prostheses or sealing of various suture lines including those of the bronchial system of infants. Together with collagen fleece it has turned out to be most effective for control of superficial bleeding due to adhesions or sources of bleeding difficult to reach. Two clinical examples are presented demonstrating the life-saving application of the collagen patch and fibrin gluing method.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
