Ly. Adamyan et al., REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION AFTER RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY ON RAT UTERINE HORNS, International journal of fertility and menopausal studies, 39(4), 1994, pp. 229-233
Objective-To assess the effectiveness of tuboplasty procedures employi
ng fibrin glue. Methods-Experimental tuboplasty operations were perfor
med on 63 rats using biological glues (fibrin glue-''Beriplast'' Behri
ng; ''FK-1'', Russia) and microsuture materials. Uterine horn patency,
adhesion formation, and other changes at the site of anastomosis, as
well as pregnancy rate and embryonal characteristics, were assessed. C
onclusions-We confirmed the effectiveness of fibrin glue application i
n reconstructive surgery on uterine horns, and documented no significa
nt differences between microsuture and sutureless anastomoses with reg
ard to pregnancy rates (80 and 83.3%, respectively).
