[Suggestion for treatment of primarily inoperable omphalocele (author's transl)]. 1979

D Karitzky

Bending primarily inoperable omphalocele can be avoided by simply using Stülpa tube-dressing together with a spongering. Epithelising under the employment of tannin or Betaisodona becomes much easier if this method is used.

D013634	Tannins	Polyphenolic compounds with molecular weights of around 500-3000 daltons and containing enough hydroxyl groups (1-2 per 100 MW) for effective cross linking of other compounds (ASTRINGENTS). The two main types are HYDROLYZABLE TANNINS and CONDENSED TANNINS. Historically, the term has applied to many compounds and plant extracts able to render skin COLLAGEN impervious to degradation. The word tannin derives from the Celtic word for OAK TREE which was used for leather processing.	Tannin
