Fibrin Sealant Cuts Postoperative Complications in ESD

Applying human-derived fibrin sealant after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) significantly enhances patient outcomes.

  • Delayed hemorrhage rates dropped to 1.7% in the fibrin group versus 6.9% in controls (p < 0.001).
  • One month post-ESD, the fibrin group saw a wound healing rate of 65.4%, compared to 51.1% for controls (p = 0.014).

This sealant not only reduces bleeding but also minimizes postoperative pain and accelerates healing.

  • Risk factors for bleeding include lesion location in the lower stomach and larger specimen sizes (≥60 mm).
