Abstract
- Injection of the tissue adhesive Histoacryl (N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate, enbucrilate) has been more effective than conventional sclerosants in the treatment of active upper G-I bleeding. Histoacryl is an effective sclerosant that is polymerized immediately after contact with blood, and has been used for the treatment of bleeding gastric and esophageal varices. We present here a case of infarction of the caudate lobe that developed after an injection of a Histoacryl -Lipiodol mixture for the hemostasis of duodenal ulcer bleeding.
