Summary
  • Fibrin sealing has also been applied successfully in tangential excisions of burn wounds for hemostasis and securing of autografts, and blood loss has been markedly reduced, too. Particularly good results have been achieved in the management of deep burns and in head and neck surgery.
  • This book presents new applications for fibrin sealant in plastic surgery for optimal local hemostasis in large wounds, for sealing of autologous implants, and to seal large bleeding surfaces. Fibrin sealant has been applied in experimental studies in nerve repair both as a conduit and as a matrix for gap healing in silicon conduits in peripheral nerve repair with promising results. In clinical treatment fibrin sealant seems to have a strong role in peripheral nerve repair.
