title: [Adhesive substances in medicine--history, present status and perspectives].
abstract: In the introduction to this study, present state of the progress of tissue adhesives and their use in medicine is discussed. Synthetic adhesives and the fibrin system are described. The advantages and disadvantages of both types of adhesive are compared. The bioadhesive systems used in medicine must meet certain requirements necessary for their application. The composition and preparation of the fibrin adhesives are analyzed in detail. Their effect on the regeneration of tissue cells and the level of histotoxicity are very important. The characteristics of the fibrin adhesive system result from its physiological origin. The filling of the wound with these adhesives improves the natural processes of healing.
