    Author: Von Oppell UO, Chimuka D, Brink JG, Zilla P.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1995 Mar; 59(3):761-3. PubMed ID: 7887733.
    Abstract:
    Gelatin-resorcin-formaldehyde-glutaraldehyde (GRF) biologic glue is an available adjunct to repair acute ascending aortic dissections. Permanent complete heart block complicated the operative repair of 2 of 6 patients. The pathophysiology of heart block resulting from either the acute dissecting process or the technique of applying GRF glue is discussed.
