Histoacryl adhesive

Cyanoacrylate (Histoacryl) is a tissue adhesive used in duraplasty. The sites at which it is used should be carefully chosen. Cyanoacrylates are also in use for embolization of arteriovenous malformations in the brain. The risk of this procedure is the creation of pulmonary emboli after acrylate glue injection, particularly when delivery systems without flow arrest are used in high-flow vascular brain lesions. Techniques using acetic acid to delay polymerization time and sandwich techniques, in which glue is pushed with dextrose, appear to be more likely to cause this complication (1). [Pg.1022]

Another tissue adhesive that has been reported is enbucrylate (Histoacryl B. Braun, Tuttlingen, Germany). It can be used when multiple collaterals are seen that are too small to be selectively catheterized [26]. [Pg.222]

The embolizing agents are the same as those used for adults. The gelatin sponge particles (Surgifoam, Ethicon, Johnson Johnson Co., Somerville, New Jersey) are used for a temporary occlusion, and the polyvinyl alcohol particles (Contour, Boston Scientific Corp., Fremont, CA) for a permanent occlusion. Tissue adhesive N-butyl-2-cyanoacry-late (Indermil, Tyco, Norwalk, USA) or enbucrilate (Histoacryl, Braun, Aesculap) opacified with oily contrast media and alcohol can also used in pediatrics. [Pg.305]

Butyl cyanoacrylate is an intermediate-length CA (Fig. 14.1) adhesive, and was the first product broadly used for closing cutaneous wounds. This compound has been approved for use in Europe and Canada as Histoacryl Blue (trademark of Aesculap, Inc) and GluStitch (trademark of GluStitch Inc.) for nearly 40 years. It was not, however, approved by the US FDA for use in the United States for a long time. In Europe, Canada, and Japan, it has been used for middle ear procedures to close cerebrospinal leaks, to repair incisions and lacerations, and to affix skin since the... [Pg.349]

This sterile, hquid topical skin adhesive is available in two formulations Histoacryl and Histoacryl Blue [28]. [Pg.266]
