Summary

This study tested if a special surgical glue, Ifabond, can reduce fluid buildup (seroma) after breast cancer surgery. 104 patients having partial mastectomy with or without lymph node removal took part. The glue was applied during surgery, and fluid volume was measured at 3, 15, and 30 days after. The goal was to see if the glue helps patients feel better and need fewer needle drainings.
