BioGlue: A Protective Barrier After Pericardiotomy

Abstract: A sheet of milled BioGlue applied over the surface of the heart but not attached to it after partial pericardiectomy has been shown to stimulate formation of a loose connective tissue barrier containing blood vessels. This barrier is unique compared to dense fibrous scar which usually forms after opening the pericardium for cardiac operations.

“…The animal species used were mouse (2% of studies, n = 1 study with n = 4 total animals) ( 4 ), rat (7%, n = 3 studies with n = 28 total animals) ( 5 7 ), hamster (2%, n = 1 study with n = 11 total animals) ( 8 ), rabbit (44%, n = 18 studies with n = 235 total animals) ( 3 , 9 25 ), canine (19%, n = 8 studies with n = 66 total animals) ( 26 33 ), pig (19%, n = 8 studies with n = 53 total animals) ( 3 , 34 40 ), and sheep (7%, n = 3 studies with n = 15 total animals) ( 41 43 ) ( Table 1 ).…”

“…Numerous strategies have been described for reducing postoperative adhesions, such as sprinkling solutions into the pericardial sac or using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) or bioabsorbable gelatin sheets. [3][4][5] However, there is no accepted approach for reducing adhesion formation after cardiac surgery. 6 Herein, we describe a novel membrane assembled from 10% polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).…”

“…A manipulação do coração durante a operação e a presença de sangue no saco pericárdico desencadeia a formação de aderências fibrosas entre estas duas superfícies. Findada a operação freqüemente não é possível o fechamento completo do pericárdio, devido ao aumento do volume do coração ou ao fato do pericárdio ter sido excisado e utilizado para reconstrução de alguma estrutura (Wang et al, 2007). Particularmente nos casos de revascularização do miocárdio ou implante de tubos valvados, o fechamento do pericárdio pode provocar distorção ou dobra nos enxertos (Revuelta et al, 1985).…”

“…Novos materiais têm sido estudados na tentativa de diminuir a reação tecidual e formação de aderências. Entre os utilizados em trabalhos experimentais podemos citar membranas sintéticas mistas de poliéster e copolímero de silicone-poliuretano (Kajihara et al,2005) e materiais absorvíveis como membrana de colágeno sintético (Tsukhiara et al, 2006), solução ou filme de diacrilato de polietilenoglicol com derivado de ácido hialurônico (Connors et al, 2007) e a "cola" biológica Bioglue® (Wang et al, 2007).…”
