Clinical evaluations of complete autologous fibrin glue, produced by the CryoSeal® FS System, and polyglycolic acid sheets as wound coverings after oral surgery

In recent years, the technique of covering open wound surfaces with a polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet and commercial fibrin glue has been widely used in oral surgery. The utility and convenience of this method have been previously reported (Takeuchi et al., 2011, 2013; Terasawa et al., 2013). The PGA sheet is an absorbent and strong material that is gradually degraded by hydrolysis. Fibrin glue is a biodegradable and absorbable biological agent with tissue repair and haemostasis capacities that is widely used in cardiovascular and abdominal operations.
