Autologous platelet rich fibrin glue for sealing of low-output enterocutaneous fistulas: An observational cohort study

Background Glue sealing has become an alternative option for occlusion of enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) because of it minimal invasiveness and simplicity. This study aimed to determine efficacy and safety of autologous, platelet-rich fibrin glue (PRFG) in promoting closure of ECFs. Methods This was...

Zusammenfassung:Background Glue sealing has become an alternative option for occlusion of enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) because of it minimal invasiveness and simplicity. This study aimed to determine efficacy and safety of autologous, platelet-rich fibrin glue (PRFG) in promoting closure of ECFs. Methods This was a nonrandomized cohort study, recruiting patients who had low-output ECFs (
