Clinical applications of Histoacryl®

Closure of the skin

Histoacryl® is ideal for closing non-tension skin wounds, such as clean surgical incisions, incisions from access for minimally invasive surgery, or simple and well-cleaned traumatic lacerations. Thanks to its quick and painless application, it represents a valid alternative to traditional sutures, improving the patient experience and the aesthetic appearance of the scar.

Thanks to its quick and painless application, Histoacryl® represents an effective alternative to traditional sutures, reducing the risk of infections and improving the aesthetic appearance of the scar.

Sclerotherapy

Histoacryl® can be used for the sclerotherapy of large esophageal varices and gastric fundus, both bleeding and non-bleeding. Histoacryl® can be combined with traditional sclerosing therapies, achieving final hemostasis in 90% of cases and reducing the risk of re-bleeding compared to ligation.

Mesh fixation

Another advantage of Histoacryl® is the non-invasive fixation of surgical meshes, particularly useful in inguinal hernia surgery. Scientific literature shows that this method is better tolerated by patients compared to traditional fixations. Additionally, Histoacryl® can be used with various hernia repair techniques, ensuring a recurrence rate comparable to conventional methods, with low intra- and post-operative morbidity and a lower risk of chronic pain. Operating times are reduced, and in vivo biocompatibility is optimal.
