Zusammenfassung:Provided herein are compositions, systems and surgical methods for treating expandable soft tissue utilizing a reactive liquid hydrogel sealant mixture including a cross-linkable electrophilic compound, a nucleophilic compound, and an amphiphilic poly(alkyl)ene glycol block polymer in an amount of 20% (w/v) or less of the sealant composition. The composition can optionally include a viscosifier, in an amount of 0.1% to 1.0% (w/v) of the sealant composition.
