Abstract

Background: In conventional cleft palate surgeries, bleeding is controlled by bipolar cauterization and external pressure. However in case of extensive cauterization, tissue necrosis can result in palatal fistulas post-operatively. We report the application of fibrin sealant as an adjunct hemostatic agent in cleft palate surgeries. Aim: To study the application of fibrin sealant in cleft palate surgery. Settings & Design: Tertiary Care Centre, Case Report. Methods& Material: Five cleft palate patients were selected in non-randomized manner in whom intra-operative bleeding could not be controlled by conventional hemostatic methods. Fibrin sealant was applied to achieve Hemostasis. Statistical Analysis: None Results: Fibrin sealant was used successfully in five patients operated for cleft palate surgery to control bleeding. No complications or adverse reactions were noted. Conclusions: Fibrin sealant can be effectively used as an adjunct to control hemostasis for cleft palate surgery.
