Abstract
An industrially produced fibrinogen-Aprotinin and thrombin-calcium chloride ‘tissue glue’, Tisseel®, has been tested for skin grafting. The ‘take' of the graft was successful in 92% after grafting with Tisseel®, and in 83% without gluing. In difficult areas, such as over mobile muscle or close to skin folds, 88% of cases were successful with tissue gluing and 44% without.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
