Abstract

The use of tisuacryl tissue adhesive for the synthesis of buccomaxillofacial wounds favors hemostasis, nutrition and cicatrization of the wound edges, fast recovery of the tissue, reduction of the edema and prevents complications such as infection and histic reaction to foreign body. The synthesis of surgical or traumatic wounds was performed without applying suture among 171 patients that attended the Maxillofacial Surgery Service of "Aleida Fernández Chardiet" General Clinical and Surgical Hospital, in Güines, by an uncontrolled multicenter stage III clinical trial of therapeutic extension. The buccal surgical techniques predominated and the length of the wound was of 6 cm (39 %). The patients received ambulatory treatment and were satisfied with the results. The accumulation of dirtiness, sweat, saliva and food debris in the wounds, as it occurs when suture thread are used, was avoided. The hermetic occlusion of the wound was attained. The use of tisuacryl is recommended for athletes' wounds. Excellent cosmetic results are achieved. The patient does not refer to the annoyances caused by the suture material.
