Applications of FloSeal innephron-sparing surgery

The effectiveness of FloSeal® matrix hemostatic agent in thyroid surgery: a prospective, randomized, control study

“…The use of FloSeal in cardiac [9], vascular [10,11], urological [12][13][14][15], lacrimal [16], neurosurgical [17], experimental [18], and nasal/sinus [19][20][21][22][23][24] surgery has been widely reported in the literature. However, only one study using FloSealmatrix hemostatic agent in thyroid surgery has been reported to date, and this was an uncontrolled study [25].…”

Feasibility study for robotic radical prostatectomy cautery-free neurovascular bundle preservation

“…They and others 14 have concluded that gelatin matrix provided durable hemostasis following partial nephrectomy. Lee and associates have also described a technique highly dependent on the hemostatic benefits of FloSeal for tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy.…”

Adjuncts for Tissue stasis

“…In an observational series of partial nephrectomies, FloSeal ® provided better hemostasis than more time-consuming measures such as suturing. 121 Another report utilizing FloSeal ® during partial nephrectomy procedures found the adjunct helpful in providing immediate hemostasis. 122 FloSeal ® in both studies was noted to be particularly advantageous in laparoscopic renal procedures.…”

“…Rapid, effective hemostasis was also observed when FloSeal ® was used to stop vigorous bleeding in transsphenoidal pituitary surgery. 123 Although these three non-controlled studies are subjective assessments, [121][122][123] …”
