Abstract |
Clinical experiences in a timespan of two and a half years with a human fibrinogen concentrate in head and neck surgery are reported. In 49 patients with different bleeding disorders tonsillectomies, adenectomies and nasal dermoplasties ( Osler's disease) were carried out. In these cases primary hemostasis due to the fibrin adhesive combined with an allogenic collagen implant could be obtained without any subsitution of the deficient blood clotting factors. In all these cases no complications could be observed. In other 193 cases which underwent a surgical treatment in the head and neck region (frontobasal and laterobasal fractures, rupture of the carotid artery, closure of perforations of the nasal septum and oroantral fistulas, different methods of skinmucosa- and nerve-grafting) the fibrin adhesive was successfully used.
