[Surgical treatment of experimental liver injuries in dogs with special evaluation of Polish-made cyanoacrylic glue. I. Clinical observations, morphological and biochemical studies of blood and autopsy studies].

Liver wounds were experimentally induced in dogs. The wounds were dressed with catgut suture, suture and fibrinous sponge and ester n-butyl alfa-cyanoacrylic acid in aerosol form obtained laboratorially at the Institute of Organic Chemistry--Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. The basis for evaluation were clinical observations of the operated animals, morphological and biochemical examination of blood and dissection. It was found that the best results were achieved with the surgical glue. Application of this monomer in aerosol form to join and dress liver wounds helps to close them tightly in a short time and obtain full hemostasis and stop bile leaking.
