Background And Objectives: Photochemical tissue bonding (PTB) is a new non-thermal technique for tissue repair involving application of a photochemically active dye and irradiation with visible light. The objective was to compare PTB with standard sutures and the tissue adhesive, octyl cyanoacrylate, for closure of skin incisions and excisions.
Study Design/materials And Methods: Incisions and excisions made on the flanks of a Hanford mini-pig were secured with subcutaneous sutures.
