Fbren Glue

We recently had a JW with cancer of the esophagus.
He was oozing bllod over most of the esophagus.
Nova 7 and other coagulants did not work.
The Dr. used fibrin glue, and coated the entire surface.
Has anyone heard of this being done before?

No, but it sounds reasonable.

Topical clotting mediator, made a patch, patch worked. Awesome, creative, and hopefully will be used again for similar difficult treatment situations. Bravo this doc!
