AbstractThe practical adhesion of equine pericardium membranes bonded with surgical glue has been measured by the bulge-and-blister technique under injection of pressurized distilled water. The value of the interfacial crack propagation energy can be estimated from the critical debonding pressure. The measured practical adhesion energies are weak with regards to those of engineering structural adhesives, but they are reliable enough to allow a comparison between different surgical glues and a study of the influence of the bonding experimental conditions.

The authors encountered an unusual case of recurrent trismus in a patient who had oral synechia, cleft lip and palate, digital anomalies, and external genital anomaly. Mandibular movement was severely restricted by congenital soft-tissue adhesion in the retromolar region. Despite aggressive surgical efforts and postoperative manipulations, limitation of mouth opening recurred soon after each operation. Furthermore, congenital and postoperative soft-tissue adhesion resulted in severe subsequent jaw deformities, which needed combined maxillary and mandibular advancement.

Soft tissue adhesion on the electrosurgical electrode has been a major concern in clinical surgery. In order to improve the adhesion property of the electrode, micro-textures with different morphologies including micro-dimples, longitudinal micro-channels, and lateral micro-channels were created on the electrode surface by laser surface texturing (LST). Electric cutting experiments were then performed to investigate the adhesion behavior of different electrodes. Experimental results showed that the textured electrode surfaces could reduce the soft tissue adhesion significantly due to the effect of air in micro-textures and the reduction of contact area between the electrode and the soft tissue. Moreover, the temperature distribution of the electric cutting process was simulated through COMSOL to verify the effect of different micro-textures on adhesion behavior. It was demonstrated that the better anti-adhesion property could be obtained at a large area density combined with lateral micro-channels.

Soft tissue adhesion and infection prevention are currently challenging for dental transmucosal or percutaneous orthopedic implants. It has previously been shown that aligned micro-grooves obtained by Electron Beam (EB) can drive fibroblast alignment for improved soft tissue adhesion. In this work, evidence is presented that the same technique can also be effective for a reduction of the infection risk. Grooves 10–30 µm wide and around 0.2 µm deep were obtained on Ti6Al4V by EB. EB treatment changes the crystalline structure and microstructure in a surface layer that is thicker than the groove depth. Unexpectedly, a significant bacterial reduction was observed. The surfaces were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, confocal microscopy, contact profilometry, wettability and bacterial adhesion tests. The influence of surface topography, microstructure and crystallography on bacterial adhesion was systematically investigated: it was evidenced that the bacterial reduction after EB surface treatment is not correlated with the grooves, but with the microstructure induced by the EB treatment, with a significant bacterial reduction when the surface microstructure has a high density of grain boundaries. This correlation between microstructure and bacterial adhesion was reported for the first time for Ti alloys.
