“…13 However, on the contrary, a recent Cochrane review concluded that there were no differences in the rates of wound infections or wound dehiscence between high viscosity octyl cyanoacrylate adhesives and sutures. 14 On assessment of the scar we found out there was no significant difference between the two groups with respect to the scar height, scar width or color of the scar (p value =1.00). After a 3 month follow up none of our patient developed a keloid or a hypertrophic scar.…”

“…Es importante considerar que para una adecuada aplicación de estos materiales, es necesario que sean utilizados gota-a-gota, protegiendo los tejidos adyacentes, disponiendo de abundante suero fisiológico en caso de exposición accidental y evitando posible ingestión mediante una aspiración continua (12,29) . Las presentaciones de alta viscosidad pueden reducir el riesgo de migración del adhesivo fuera de la herida, (7,50) . Independiente de esto, luego de su aplicación, el tejido debe ser inmovilizado por 30 segundos aproximadamente, para permitir que se complete la reacción de polimerización y deben eliminarse los excesos que puedan haber escurrido.…”

RESUMENLos adhesivos de cianoacrilatos (ACA) son materiales sintéticos con propiedades adhesivas. Al ser aplicados en los tejidos polimerizan uniéndose con el tejido subyacente. Desde la década de los 70' se han explorado sus aplicaciones quirúrgicas para el cierre de heridas y fístulas, control de sangrado y fijación de injertos, entre otros, siendo su uso como alternativa para el cierre de heridas en piel y mucosas uno de los más estudiados. Los ACA presentan un limitado grado de absorción, sin evidencia de efectos tóxicos sistémicos. Tienen la ventaja de ser aplicados de forma rápida, indolora, con efecto antibacteriano y hemostático según los reportes de la literatura, pero presentan una reducida fuerza de tensión. El objetivo de esta revisión de la literatura es describir los usos y aplicaciones de los ACA, con enfoque en la cirugía oral y maxilofacial, evaluando de forma crítica sus aplicaciones.

ABSTRACTThe cyanoacrylate adhesives (ACA) are synthetic materials with adhesive properties. When is applied in tissues, it polymerizes and bonds with the underlying tissue. Since the 70s' have been explored their surgical applications for closing wounds, fistulas, bleeding control, and graft fixation, among others. Its use as an alternative for closing wounds in skin and mucous is one of the most studied. The ACA have a limited absorption degree, with no evidence of systemic toxic effects. They have the advantage of being applied quickly, painlessly, with antibacterial effect and hemostatic according to the report of literature, but with reduced tensile strength. The objective of this literature review is to describe the use and applications of ACA, with focus on oral and maxillofacial surgery, with a critically evaluation of their applications.

“…The VAS is an instrument that yields a simple numerical quantification of subjective perceptions of satisfaction, ranging from 1 (worst possible) to 10 (best imaginable). This scale has been previously used for scoring the cosmetic results after wound closure . To our knowledge, very few studies asked participants to score their own cosmetic result using this validated visual analogue scale .…”

“…Based on the results of clinical trials, some researchers advocate their use, whereas others report better outcomes with conventional sutures . Nonetheless, most found no difference in the cosmetic outcome of wounds repaired using either method . The shortcomings of cyanoacrylates are well known: wound stiffness, sensation of heat during setting, and the inflammatory capacity of metabolites produced during degradation of the cyanoacrylate components.…”
