This study presents the clinical outcomes of using inhouse prepared fibrin glue for controlling gingival bleeding in patients with inherited bleeding disorders (IBD). The objective of the study was to assess the reduction in transfusion days and improvement in compliance for dental evaluation over a one-year period in a low-to-middle-income country. The quasiexperimental pilot study included 40 IBD patients with gingival bleeding. These were divided into two groups: Group A received fibrin glue (n=20), while Group B did not (n=20). The study compared outcome metrics, including the number of treatment days and blood components transfused, using non-parametric tests with a significance threshold of p<0.05. Results showed that Group A required fewer blood components (n=154) as compared to Group B (n=204) (p<0.001). Patients in Group A with Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) had a shorter treatment duration (one day) than those in group B (three days) (p<0.01). In conclusion, the application of fibrin glue effectively managed intractable gingival bleeding in IBD patients.

Burns carry a large surface area, varying in shapes and depths, and an elevated risk of infection. Regardless of the underlying etiology, burns pose significant medical challenges and a high mortality rate. Given the limitations of current therapies, tissue-engineering-based treatments for burns are inevitable.

The plane running between two adjacent pulmonary segments consists of a very thin layer of connective tissue through which the pulmonary vein also runs. To perform an anatomically correct segmentectomy, this segmental plane needs to be divided. Before the operation, the locations of vessels and bronchi are confirmed by three-dimensional computed tomography.

In general, the nerve cells of the peripheral nervous system regenerate normally within a certain period after the physical damage of their axon. However, when peripheral nerves are transected by trauma or tissue extraction for cancer treatment, spontaneous nerve regeneration cannot occur. Therefore, it is necessary to perform microsurgery to connect the transected nerve directly or insert a nerve conduit to connect it.

Objective We evaluated the outcomes of tympanic membrane regenerative treatment using gelatin sponge, recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and fibrin glue at Yokosuka Kyosai Hospital. Methodology We enrolled a total of 42 patients with tympanic membrane perforations (TMPs) (44 ears; right:left = 21:23) that were treated using gelatin sponge, recombinant bFGF, and fibrin glue between July 2020 and December 2023 at Yokosuka Kyosai Hospital. TMP closure rates, improvement of hearing level, and complications were retrospectively included in the evaluation items.

Background: Over the past decade, facial aesthetics has gained popularity, with a notable increase in upper-face lift procedures. Despite the popularity of brows and forehead lifts, the optimal fixation technique remains controversial. Common methods involve suturing of the temporal fascia or using monocortical miniscrews anchored to the frontal bone.
