Comparative studies on bioplasts used for the closure of wound surfaces of the pancreas.
The solubility of four types of bioplasts was studied in vitro in homogenized pancreas tissue. In parallel experiments the resection surface of pancreas in dogs was covered with the same materials. "Collagen" and "Surgicel" proved to be more resistant to pancreatic juice than other bioplasts and in vivo results were also better in these cases.
