LOPEZ CONSUEGRA, Yuslaidy; MARTIN REYES, Odalys; ARREDONDO LOPEZ, Miguel  and  GARCIA-ROCO PEREZ, Oscar. Use of the tissular adhesive Tisuacryl in the synthesis of injuries of buccofacial complex. AMC [online]. 2008, vol.12, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1025-0255.

Background: The ideal method for the closure of traumatic injuries should be fast, easy to carry out, cheap and little painful. The Tisuacryl adhesive developed by the Biomaterial National Center of Havana University permits to seal the recent injuries and has besides bactericide and hemostatic properties. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the tissular adhesive Tisuacryl, in the synthesis of buccofacial injuries. Method: A clinical trial phase III, of therapeutic extension, unicentric not controlled was conducted at «Manuel Ascunce Domenech» Surgical Clinical Educational Provincial Hospital of Camagüey in the Maxillofacial Surgery service, from October 2003 to March 2005. The sample was constituted by 110 patients selected according to inclusion criteria. The treatment was ambulatory, the tissular adhesive Tisuacryl was applied on the edges confronted of the buccofacial injuries, with the objective to determine the apparition of dehiscence and infection, to evaluate the quality of the cicatrization of the treated injuries, to determine the patient and investigator conformity, as well as the presence of adverse reactions. Results: The treated injuries were more frequent in the male sex in ages between 29 and 38 years, the facial traumatic injuries were predominant, with a good cicatrization in the majority of patients, without complications (dehiscence and infection). Conclusions: It resulted to be an effective and save treatment in the synthesis of cutaneous facial injuries and of the oral mucous membrane of surgical and traumatic nature. An hermetic occlusion was achieved, fast recovery of the tissues, occlusion with a good quality of cicatrization and conformity with the results of the investigators and the majority of patients. Not adverse reactions with the application of the product were presented.
