[New aspects of anastomoses of severed peripheral nerves].
Nerve anastomoses glued with Fibrinkleber are stabilized against the plasminogen-activators of the tissue by natural and synthetical inhibitors of fibrinolysis administered locally and systemically. So the early lysis of the clots is inhibited. The glued nerve anastomoses do not reach the bond strength of sutured nerves, but foreign body reactions are avoided by this method. Glueing nerves with Fibrinkleber combined with inhibition of fibrinolysis seems to be a good method reuniting severed nerves, especially in nerve transplantation, provided too much tension is avoided.
