✦ Synopsis

Fibrin Seal (FS) (a natural adhesive material composed of fibrinogen, cold insoluble globulin, factor XIII, platelet growth factor, antiplasmin thrombin, and calcium chloride) was utilized in the construction of vascular anastomosis of the femoral artery of mongrel dogs. A significant decrease in the number of sutures necessary to achieve adequate anastomosis and minimize the likelihood of postoperative bleeding was noted. There was no long-term increase in tissue reaction or decrease in arterial patency.

On the basis of these preliminary results the role of FS as a hemostatic agent in vascular and especially microvascular surgery warrants further investigation.

Normal arteries are characterized by a low turnover of endothelial (EC) and smooth muscle cells (SMC). Different mechanisms protect the EC and SMC against apoptosis in the normal artery. In hypertension, SMC replication is increased but this is not counterbalanced by increased apoptosis, resulting i
