Role of autologous fibrin tissue adhesive in abdominal surgery.

Abstract

Fibrin tissue adhesive (FTA) is an agent developed for achieving better hemostasis and adhesion of living tissue. FTA appears to have no tissue toxicity, promotes a firm seal in seconds to minutes, is reabsorbed in days to weeks following application, and appears to promote local tissue growth and repair. It can be used in various surgical procedures. It has been used preoperatively, perioperatively and postoperatively in abdominal surgical procedures. There were no side effects. Improvement of surgical hemostasis was obvious in all patients. Anastomotic leakages were closed in a shorter time without surgical intervention. Sero-lymphatic drainage after surgical procedures that include extensive lymph node dissections was less. Use of FTA in treatment of fistula in ano was successful. The data would indicate that use of FTA may be a good alternative in solving various conditions in every day clinical practice, although a bigger randomized series, and longer follow up is needed.
