[Hemostasis in deep injuries of the liver]

Experimental and clinical substantiation of the use of an original alloyed staple with shape memory allowed it to be recommended for closure of deep wounds of the liver when all other known methods and constructions are ineffective. The staple causes a lesser zone of necrosis than that produced by catgut in closure of a similar wound, and it can be removed with no loss of blood. Consequently, its application is a method of today, causes little injury, and is promising.
