    Uncontrollable bleeding after coronary surgery was managed using isobutyl-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive. This effective hemostatic agent, combined with fascia, controlled severe suture line hemorrhage in a challenging surgical case.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Surgical Hemostasis
    • Biomaterials in Medicine

    Background:

    • Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery carries a risk of postoperative bleeding.
    • Managing intractable suture line hemorrhage can be a significant clinical challenge.
    • Traditional hemostatic methods may be insufficient in severe bleeding scenarios.

    Observation:

    • A patient undergoing coronary surgery experienced uncontrollable hemorrhage from suture lines.
    • Standard surgical techniques failed to achieve adequate hemostasis.
    • The bleeding persisted despite initial attempts at control.

    Findings:

    • Application of isobutyl-cyanoacrylate (a cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive) successfully controlled the hemorrhage.
    • A piece of fascia was affixed to the suture line in conjunction with the adhesive.

  • The combination of tissue adhesive and fascia provided effective hemostasis.

    • Implications:

    • Isobutyl-cyanoacrylate is a valuable tool for managing difficult hemostatic situations in cardiovascular surgery.
    • Tissue adhesives should be readily available in centers performing major surgical procedures.
    • This case highlights the potential of advanced biomaterials in overcoming surgical bleeding complications.
