Abstract
- Abstract We describe a case of 68-year-old woman which was admitted to our hospital for mitral valve replacement (MVR), in whom acute compresion of the vena cava inferior developed after repair of lacerated atrio-caval junction with hemostatic tissue sealant, biologic glue (BioGlue, Cryolife, ınc, Kennesaw, Ga). Removal of the BioGlue relieved the unexpected problem.
