A Prospective, Randomized Trial Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Fibrin Sealant in Tubeless Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

Abstract

The instillation of Tisseel fibrin glue is safe for tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy. It is associated with less postoperative pain and a lower analgesic requirement. Additional prospective, randomized studies are required to better define its clinical role in the future.
