This review article describes the use of fibrin glue or fibrin sealants and their development over the past 5 years, with a focus on cardiac surgery. The roles of various types of sealants that are available in hemostasis control are reviewed briefly, together with the various potential risks and side effects of their use. The results of experimental work reported during the last 5 years, clinical data from the same period and the safety aspects of fibrin-based glues and sealants are summarized, showing many advantages of their clinical application over the use of synthetic glues or sealants that may be stronger in some cases, but less safe. It can be concluded that the widespread use of fibrin sealants is fully justified, as it benefits the patient as well as the surgeon through the improved control of hemostasis without increasing any adverse effects or complications during surgical procedures.
