Abstract
Abstract: There are a great number of substances and products all over the world, used for pleurodesis. However, either the pleurodesis successes of these agents are not at the desired level or they reveal various side effects after usage. In addition, the pleurodesis processes performed with these agents could be expensive, which makes it a negative influence for many patients in many countries. In this context, new herbal-originated pleurodesis substances are investigated by using various agricultural originated substances, proteins or products. In this review, the results of previously conducted studies of pleurodesis processes with herbal-originated substances, animal proteins or commercially available products of agricultural science, have been collected. These applications, which may be defined as phyto therapeutic pleurodesis, intensify mostly on viscum album (mistletoe) pleurodesis, and the copaiferamultijuga, bruceajavanica, sericin, and olive oil pleurodesis processes follow this.
