Intravesical formaldehyde instillation for the treatment of profuse hemorrhage due to inoperable bladder carcinoma has been done for the last three years. Results have been satisfactory. Recently, an anuria developed after such treatment in a 76-year-old patient. Renal biopsy showed focal tubular
We present a rare case of mitral regurgitation with anterior mitral leaflet perforation associated with gelatin-resorcinol-formaldehyde (GRF) glue. We performed mitral valve replacement for anterior mitral leaflet perforation occurred 7 years after aortic valve replacement and abscess cavity repair
BACKGROUND
Although gelatin-resorcinol-formaldehyde (GRF) glue is used for surgical repair of acute type A aortic dissections, late complications possibly ascribed to toxic effects of GRF glue have been reported. We analyzed the benefits and risks of using GRF glue.
METHODS
Between January 1990 and
Paraformaldehyde is used both as a disinfectant and to devitalise inflamed pulps when local anaesthesia is ineffective. Despite the clinical benefits, paraformaldehyde is not confined to the pulp, but penetrates the dentine and is gradually released as formaldehyde. This case series describes the
General toxicity and genetic materials damage of formaldehyde on germ cells in different stages was studied. In order to discover the toxicity mechanism of formaldehyde on germ cells and the biomarkers of effect after the presence of damage in germ cells and the estimation index, the relationships
Formaldehyde (HCHO) is a common indoor air pollutant. To assess its potential role and mechanism of action in asthma, we exposed the bronchial epithelial cell lines Calu-3 and 16HBE to HCHO (70-7000 μM) according to two exposure schedules (30 min and 24 h), before measuring cell viability, necrosis
Formaldehyde (FA), which is an important chemical with a wide commercial use, has been classified as carcinogenic to humans by International Research on Cancer (IARC). The genotoxic and carcinogenic potential of FA has been documented in mammalian cells and in rodents. A recent evaluation by the
OBJECTIVE
Haemorrhagic radiation-induced proctitis is a serious complication of radiotherapy of pelvic organs. In severe cases, massive haemorrhage may necessitate hospitalization and repeated transfusions. Application of formaldehyde under direct vision is one of the most efficient treatments. The
Formaldehyde was administered in the drinking-water to groups of 70 male and 70 female Wistar rats for up to 24 months. Survivors of subgroups of ten rats/sex/group each were killed after 12 or 18 months. The mean formaldehyde doses administered were 0, 1.2, 15 or 82 mg/kg body weight/day for males,
A tissue adhesive composed of gelatin-resorcinol-formaldehyde was prepared. The factors, influencing its properties were discussed and compared with other preparation methods. Incised rat skin wounds were unified with adhesive applied between the wound edges or on the wound surface. Sutured skin
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of formaldehyde exposure on the expression of inflammatory cytokines in human bronchial epithelial cells (16HBE cells).
METHODS
16HBE cells were treated with formaldehyde with a concentration of 0, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16, 0.32, or 0.64 mmol/L for 24 hours, and MTT assay
It is disputed to what extent tumor necrosis factor-alpha is present in the thyroid follicular epithelial cells and/or in the interstitial cells in different disorders of the thyroid gland. We describe the immunohistochemical detection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha using formaldehyde fixed and
Among alcohols, methanol intoxication is the most frequently associated with cerebral toxicity, causing retinal damage and putaminal necrosis. This consequence is believed to be due to the transformation of methanol into formic acid. We describe the case of a patient who presented with acute
Several tumor target cell lines, prototypically K562 cells, are resistant to lysis by recombinant tumor necrosis factor (TNF alpha) but are killed by monocytes expressing membrane-associated TNF, suggesting that membrane TNF could account for monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity. Formaldehyde-fixed
