[Effect of fibrin glue on lymphostasis during lymph node excisions. Prospective randomized study in 40 patients].
To evaluate the efficacy of fibrin glue for lymphostasis during axillary and inguinal lymph node removal, we conducted a prospective randomized study including 40 patients. Post-operative mortality and morbidity rates were not different throughout the 2 groups. However they were significant decreasement in drainage duration, in drainage quantity and in hospital duration in the group "with" fibrin when compared with the group "without".
