A problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a fibrosis inhibitor that solves the problem of inhibiting fibrosis of an organ or tissue surface, and especially of inhibiting fibrosis of an epicardial surface. Furthermore, by inhibiting fibrosis, the present invention prevents or reduces subsequent development of adhesions to avoid organ or tissue damage during re-operation. Provided is a fibrosis inhibitor for inhibiting fibrosis of a tissue by fixing a biocompatible polymer to a tissue where it is desirable to inhibit fibrosis.
