Fig. 4From: Investigation of the appropriate viscosity of fibrinogen in repairing pleural defects using ventilation and anchoring in an ex vivo pig modelHistological findings. Histological findings at low magnification in each group (a: Group 1, b: Group 2, c: Group 3) showed that fibrin was present in the lung parenchymal surface (in all groups), and in Groups 1 and 2, it extended into the lung parenchyma. Histological findings at high magnification in each group (d: Group 1, e: Group 2, f: Group 3) revealed that in Groups 1 and 2, fibrin was widely observed in the deep regions of the lung parenchyma (marked with *), while in Group 3, only minimal fibrin was evident within the lung parenchymaBack to article page
