  • Title: [Effectiveness of using gelatin sponge for hemostasis during treatment of acute iliofemoral venous thrombosis].
    Author: Koniukhov SG, Timofeev GA, Rybkin AV.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1977 Mar; 118(3):23-7. PubMed ID: 878188.
    Abstract:
    Patients with acute thrombosis of profound large veins of the lower limbs and pelvis (83) were administered anticoagulants of indirect action, heparin and thrombolytic drugs (fibrinolysin or thrombolytin), as a result of it all patients showed marked hypocoagulemia, contributing to increased blood loss during the operation and the development of hemorrhagic complications postoperatively. With the purpose of hemostasis gelatin sponge was employed in 47 operative interventions. The number of hemorrhagic complications, while using the sponge, was reliably decreased as compared with the group of patients (57) in whom the sponge was not employed.
