Abstract

Some interesting applications of human fibrin sealant, emphasizing its adhesive, hemostatic and cicatrizing action and the deriving advantages are presented. It is possible to use the human fibrin sealant in skin grafts or mesh grafts either on sites to obtain hemostasis or on recipient sites for immediate adhesion of the graft. In hypospadias correction it can be used to aid the tubulization and anastomosis of the urethra and in rhinophyma operation to obtain an intraoperative hemostasis. A few examples of our clinical experience with fibrin sealant in second-and third-degree burned patients, hypospadias corrections and rhinophymas are reported.
