Book Fibrin Sealant in Operative Medicine

Download or read book Fibrin Sealant in Operative Medicine written by G. Schlag and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fibrin plays a prominent role in wound healing. It has a hemostatic effect, induces cellular response to wound damage, and, by forming strands to build a matrix, assists in neovascularization and fibroblast proliferation. The concept of using clotting substances from human blood for wound manage ment and to achieve hemostasis in bleeding parenchymatous organs can be traced to 1909, when Bergel [1] reported on the hemostatic effect of fibrin powder. In 1915, Grey [3] employed fibrin to control bleeding in neurosurgical operations of the brain. A year later, Harvey [4] used fibrin patches to stop bleeding from parenchy matous organs in general surgery. It took more than two decades for this ingenious idea to be rediscovered. In 1940, Young and Medawar [8] reported on experimental nerve anastomosis by sealing. Similarly, Tarlov and Benjamin [7] reunited nerves with plasma clots in 1943. Tarlov improved the results obtained with clot anastomosing of nerves by avoiding tension at the nerve stumps. In 1944, Cronkite et al. [2] reported on an initial series of eight cases in which fibrinogen and thrombin had been used successfully for anchoring skin grafts.

Book Neurosurgery Ophthalmic Surgery ENT

Download or read book Neurosurgery Ophthalmic Surgery ENT written by Günther Schlag and published by Springer. This book was released on 1994-11-14 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These eight volumes, which developed out of the international congress "Update and Future Trends in Fibrin Sealing in Surgical and Nonsurgical Fields" held in November 1992, present the state of the art in fibrin sealing. In itially, fibrin sealant played an important role in surgery. During the past few years, it has been increasingly applied nonsurgically, and we can now say that it has become an integral component of medical treatment. The doubts which have been raised by nonusers about the efficacy of fibrin sealant are no longer valid. The correct indication and technique continue to be basic prerequisites for effective treatment. Even today - 20 years after fibrin sealant was first used - the three most prominent effects of fibrin sealant are still hemostasis, sealing of the wound, and support of wound healing. The problems posed by the transmission of viral infections have gained sub stantially in importance because of the potential transmission of AIDS via fi brin sealant. Fortunately, this is so unlikely today that it no longer represents a cause for concern, which does not mean, however, that research in this field can be discontinued.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the field of orthopedic surgery, additional areas of application and new indications have been discovered for fibrin glue treatment, for example, hemostasis in pseudotumors in hemophilic patients or in torn ligaments, and in spongiosa transplantation, primarily when nonautologous bone material is being used, or to fill large defects. In maxillofacial surgery fibrin glue is mainly used for osseous contouring of the facial and frontal bones, for alveolar ridge augmentations in preprosthetic surgery, and for soft tissue reconstructions.

Book Surgical Adhesives   Sealants

Download or read book Surgical Adhesives Sealants written by David H. Sierra and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surgical tissue adhesives are an ancient idea, going back to the beginnings of recorded history. The concept of adhering, rather than suturing, packing, or stapling planes of tissue is attractive, in that it is fast-acting and assures complete closure. Numerous technologies have been tried; some with limited success, others outright failures. In short, the perfect adhesive does not exist. Limitations occur in a number of areas: strength, toxicity, degradation, and safety. It is also important to keep in mind that "one size fits all" does not apply to adhesives in surgical applications any more than it does in day-to-day application. As one would not use paper glue to seal a bathtub, one would presumably not apply an adhesive onto tendons, which is suitable for sealing corneas. The properties required of an adhesive for each indication are quite different. Over the last twenty-five years, advances have been made in a wide range of technologies targeting some embodiment of a practical and safe adhesive. Foremost and successful among these are cyanoacrylates, marine adhesive proteins, and fibrin-based sealants. Another promising adhesive technology is laser solders, a mixture of polypeptides and proteoglycans, which integrates with the repair site when laser energy is applied. In light of these advances in the field, the Symposium for Surgical Tissue Adhesives was organized and held at the Atlanta Hyatt from October 8-10, 1993. The goal was to bring together these far-flung technologies in a comprehensive and cohesive manner. Presentations by investigators from around the world described the history of adhesives in medicine, current technologies, laboratory characterizations, and application developments, as well as regulatory aspects and clinical applications. We felt that as many viewpoints as possible, however conflicting, were important to present in order to give the most complete picture of the state of the art of surgical adhesives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the experimental and clinical assessment of fibrin sealing in endoscopy. It is based on a Symposium held in Salzburg, December 1988 and updates information availabe since the first symposium held in Vienna, 1985. Results show that, since fibrin sealing came into clinical use 13 years ago, it has become an accepted tool in many fields of surgery and increased postoperative safety. The indications and limitations of new methods are discussed here, specifically, fibrin sealing for the endoscopic closure of broncho-pleural and gastro-intestinal fistulae, for the endoscopic hemostasis of bleeding gastro-duodenal ulcers, and for the occlusion of the pancreatic duct.
