[Experimental test of two tissue adhesives (GRF and IBC 2) in vascular microsurgery in the rat (author's transl)]
Journal De Chirurgie
|April 1, 1982
Abstract:
Tissues adhesives have been evaluated on rats, during microvascular surgery: the IBC 2 and the GRF glues. The short and long term evolution is studied. The patency rate of the anastomosis is analyzed and the histological aspect is studied. The GRF glue exhibits a rapid resorption rate, but the long term results show a high toxicity against the muscular layers of the artery. The IBC 2 glue has a slower resorption rate and its long term effect are restricted to a foreign body reaction.
