ObjectiveOur point is to determine if the treatment of the 3 degree burn wounds makes any difference if sprayed cultured autologous keratinocyte used alone or in combination with Fibrin glue. DesignAnimal experimental study. Animals30 male Wistar rats. ProceduresThirty male Wistar rats were selected and their keratinocytes were isolated and cultured from small skin biopsy. Rats were divided ran...

BACKGROUND Supratip fullness, also known as pollybeak deformity, is one of the most common postoperative complications of rhinoplasty. The deformity can result from many different causes, some of which are related to the surgical technique and can be prevented. Poor redraping of thick, inelastic skin and thick subcutaneous tissues over the reduced cartilaginous framework may result in the creat...

The repair of fetal bodies after dissection is extremely difficult because of the delicacy of the skin. A tissue adhesive, Histoacryl blue, was used to repair bodies that had been dissected either before or after immersion in formalin. The repairs were achieved rapidly and neatly. The technique was easy to learn and, providing the method of repair described was followed, there was no breakdown ...

We describe a surgical technique and report outcomes for fibrin glue interposition after resection of a tarsal condition. An institutional review board--approved retrospective review of all pediatric patients with a tarsal coalition managed with resection was conducted between January 2002 and July 2010 by a single surgeon. All coalitions were resected with interposition of fibrin glue. Patie...

Fibrin glue created from a patient's own blood can be used as a carrier to deliver cells to the specific site of an injury. An experimental model for optimizing various permutations of this delivery system in vivo was tested in this study. Harvested equine meniscal sections were reapposed with fibrin glue or fibrin glue and equine bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). These constr...

background: glues are strong, liquid adhesive derived from animal tissues. it has been shown that glue sniffing is associated with demyelinating polyneuropathy. the low molecular weight agents which cause occupational lung disease have generally included the isocyanates exposure to which could result in asthma among workers. toluene is also used widely in glue and adhesive industry and househol...

For tissue engineering of bone, a carrier matrix and efficient cell seeding are desirable. This study analysed the effect of fibrin glue on bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) adhesion, proliferation (MTS-Test), differentiation (alkaline phosphatase (AP), osteocalcin (OC), ELISA) and compared the results with cells seeded within culture media on a decellularized, xenogenic bone matrix. There was n...

AIM Fibrin glue becomes a more and more routinely used tool for stabilization of microanastomoses and nerve repair. This paper summarizes the technical properties and advantages of its use in a wide variety of microsurgical contexts, and includes an exemplary limb reconstructive case. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 131 patients who had undergone elective and emergency microsurgery mainly of ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the application of medical adhesive glue for tension-reduced duraplasty in decompressive craniotomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 56 cases were enrolled for this study from Jan 2013 to May 2015. All patients underwent decompressive craniotomy and the dura was repaired in all of them with tension-reduced duraplasty using the COMPONT medical adh...
