[Homologous collagen implants in oral surgery in hemorrhagic patients]
In 154 hospitalized hemorrhagic patients 883 oro-surgical procedures were done under continuous anticoagulation. Human collagen material combined with fibrin adhesive offered a safe hemostatic effect. A total of 12, mostly minor, postoperative bleedings occurred, which did not lead to delayed wound healing. Good tissue tolerance towards both homologous partners and healing by primary intention should be emphasized. These observations are to be corroborated by further clinical trials. Human collagen can make surgical treatment in hemorrhagic patients safer yet.
