Autologous fibrin sealant in reconstructive rabbit oviduct microsurgery.
A simple method for preparing concentrated fibrinogen for use in a tissue adhesive system is described. Approximately 75% to 80% of the plasma fibrinogen can be separated and concentrated within 45 to 60 minutes from a small blood sample collected from the patient before the operation. Autologous fibrinogen prepared by this method was evaluated in reconstructive microsurgery of the rabbit oviduct.
