Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy of fibrin glue for lymphostasis during axilla ry and inguinal lymph node removal, we conducted a prospective randomi zed study including 40 patients. Post-operative mortality and morbidit y rates were not different throughout the 2 groups. However they were significant decreasement in drainage duration, in drainage quantity an d in hospital duration in the group ''with'' fibrin when compared with the group ''without''.
