Biological glue is increasingly used in cardiac surgery. We report a case of type A aortic dissection repair that was complicated by subsequent pulmonary embolism due to BioGlue(®) (Cryolife Inc, Hennesaw, GA, USA). To our knowledge this is the first report of a case with this complication.
生物胶水在心脏手术中的应用越来越广泛。我们报告了一例A型主动脉夹层修复手术,术后因使用美国佐治亚州肯尼索市Cryolife公司生产的BioGlue(®)而并发肺栓塞。据我们所知,这是首例关于该并发症的病例报告。
