Abstract

Gelatin-thrombin matrix (GTM) is a hemostatic sealant consisting of bovine-derived gelatin matrix and human-derived thrombin, combining bothmechanical and active mechanisms to achieve hemostasis. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1999. GTM has been used by severalsurgical specialties; however, it is a possibly an under-used tool in obstetrics and gynecology. A limited number of studies have been performed on itsuse during laparoscopic endometrioma excision and myomectomy. It may prove useful in endometrioma excision in reproductive aged women becauseit is likely to harm ovarian reserve less than electrocautery; however, this conclusion needs to be validated. The only study on GTM use in myomectomyincluded 50 women randomized into GTM and control groups, and showed decreased blood loss and shorter hospital stays in the GTM group. Ingynecologic oncology, it was successfully used to reduce lymphocele cases in a cohort study. GTM has been used successfully in obstetrics in a handfulof cases of uncontrolled bleeding from caesarean scar, placental site, ectopic pregnancy, rectovaginal hematoma, and venous plexus over the vaginal vaultafter emergency postpartum hysterectomy. Risk of viral transmission is a major concern about GTM, yet there are no reports on disease transmission withGTM use to date. Rare but serious adverse effects and complications have been reported such as fatal or near-fatal thromboembolism and small bowelobstruction. Although GTM is mostly a safe product, it is still not free of complications and risks. In conclusion, although routine use of GTM cannot berecommended due to concerns about its safety, cost, and availability, it may prove useful when conventional hemostatic methods such as suturing andelectrocauterization fail or are not appropriate.

Özet

Jelatin-trombin matriks (GTM), hemostaz elde etmek için hem mekanik hem de aktif mekanizmaları kullanan, sığır kaynaklı jelatin matriks ve insandan türetilmiş trombin içeren hemostatik bir yalıtkandır. 1999 yılında Gıda ve İlaç Dairesi tarafından onaylanmıştır. GTM birçok cerrahi uzmanlık alanları tarafından kullanılmıştır, ancak obstetrik ve jinekolojide muhtemelen GTM’den yeterince faydalanılmamaktadır. Laparoskopik endometrioma eksizyonu ve miyomektomi sırasında kullanımı konusunda sınırlı sayıda çalışma yapılmıştır. Üreme çağındaki kadınlarda over rezervine elektrokoterden daha az zararlı olma olasılığı nedeniyle endometrioma eksizyonunda yararlı olabilir ancak bu sonucun doğrulanması gerekir. Miyomektomide GTM kullanımı üzerine yapılan tek çalışmada, 50 kadın GTM ve kontrol grupları olarak randomize edilmiş ve GTM grubunda kan kaybının azaldığı ve hastanede kalış süresini kısaldığı gösterilmiştir. Jinekolojik onkolojide, bir kohort çalışmasında lenfosel olgularını azalttığı görülmüştür. GTM, sezaryen skarından kaynaklanan kontrol edilemeyen kanamalar, plasental yatak kanamaları, ektopik gebelik, rektovajinal hematom ve vajinal venöz pleksuslardan kanama olan obstetrik olgularda başarılı bir şekilde kullanılmıştır. Viral bulaşma riski, GTM ile ilgili büyük bir sorun teşkil etmektedir, ancak bugüne kadar GTM kullanımı ile hastalık bulaşı konusunda herhangi bir olgu bildirilmemiştir. Ölümcül ya da morbiditesi yüksek tromboembolizm ve ince bağırsak tıkanıklığı gibi nadir fakat ciddi yan etkiler ve komplikasyonlar bildirilmiştir. GTM çoğunlukla güvenli bir ürün olmasına rağmen komplikasyon ve risklerden arınmış değildir. Sonuç olarak, GTM’nin rutin kullanımı, güvenlik, maliyet ve kullanılabilirliği ile ilgili endişelerden dolayı önerilemese de, dikiş ve elektrokoterizasyon gibi geleneksel hemostatik yöntemler başarısız olduğunda ya da uygun olmadığında yararlı olabilir.
