Abstract
Soft tissue response to three subcutaneously implanted local hemostati c agents; oxidised regenerated cellulose (Surgicel), gelatin sponge (S pongostan) and collagen sponge (Hemostagen) were evaluated histopathol ogically 7, 14, 21, 30 and 45 days following their implantation in rat s. The results showed that all materials were well tolerated by soft t issues. These materials neither seemed to impair nor contribute to wou nd healing.
