  • Title: Histoacryl tissue adhesive in some types of retinal detachment surgery.
    Author: Regenbogen L, Romano A, Zuckerman M, Stein R.
    Journal: Br J Ophthalmol; 1976 Aug; 60(8):561-4. PubMed ID: 987798.
    Abstract:
    Preserved human scleral graft and histoacryl-blue tissue adhesive were used in four cases of retinal detachment surgery to obtain scleral buckling effect and to protect staphylomatous or necrotic scleral areas. The use of histoacryl produced a strong and resistant adhesion between the host and the preserved scleral patch. The postoperative inflammatory reaction was mild and disappeared within one week.
