Objective: To report a case of ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma with massive hemoperitoneum which was successfully controlled with isoamyl 2-cyanoacrylate.
Clinical Presentation And Intervention: A 46-year-old Bangladeshi gentleman presented to our casualty complaining of acute abdominal pain and distension, associated with jaundice. Bedside abdominal ultrasound showed multiple focal lesions in the liver with fluid in the abdomen. The patient was vitally unstable, so he was resuscitated and underwent emergency laparotomy for massive hemoperitoneum due to a ruptured tumor nodule. Isoamyl 2-cyanoacrylate was applied to the ruptured nodule which stopped bleeding within 1-2 min.
Conclusion: This case shows the effectiveness of isoamyl 2-cyanoacrylate in controlling bleeding in ruptured liver tumors.

Introduction As the incidence of periodontal diseases continues to surge, there is a concurrent elevation in the demand for periodontal treatment. Periodontal surgical therapy is done to control and eliminate disease activity. Conventionally, silk sutures have been considered the gold standard for post-operative flap closure that leads to biofilm accumulation and tissue trauma.

Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to compare the effectiveness of cyanoacrylate adhesive as a substitute for conventional suture placement after extraction of impacted third molars. The PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane, and gray literature databases were searched for randomized or controlled prospective clinical trials published up to October 2022 that compared the use of cyanoacrylate adhesive and conventional silk suture in third molar surgeries.

Background In order to maintain the surgery site's shape, functionality, and aesthetics, closure of the wound is essential for intra-oral and general surgical procedures. Wound closure speeds up healing by reducing the buildup of inflammatory cells. For a wound to heal well, the incision must be precise, the tissue must be handled delicately, the wound must be precisely repositioned, and the closure material must have optimum functional properties and be sterile.
