Abstract
Laparoscopic surgery is undergoing rapid development. Replacing the traditional method of joining cut tissues with sutures or staples could greatly simplify and speed up laparoscopic procedures. This alternative could undoubtedly be adhesives. For decades, scientists have been working on a material to bond tissues together to create the best possible conditions for tissue regeneration. The results of research on tissue adhesives achieved over the past years show comparable treatment effects to traditional methods. Tissue adhesives are a good alternative to surgical sutures in wound closure. This article is a review of the most important groups of tissue adhesives including their properties and possible applications. Recent reports on the development of biological adhesives are also discussed.
