Teflon pledgets are widely used for hemostasis and the reinforcement of friable tissue in surgery. However, rare but serious complications caused by the erosion of Teflon pledgets have been reported. We present an unusual case of an intrathoracic cavitary mass that was formed by the erosion of a cluster of Teflon pledgets into the lung parenchyma eight years after a lung resection.
特氟龙棉片在手术中广泛用于止血和加固脆弱组织。然而，有报道称特氟龙棉片侵蚀会引发罕见但严重的并发症。我们报告一例罕见病例，一名患者在肺切除术后八年，一团特氟龙棉片侵蚀进入肺实质，形成了胸腔内空洞性肿块。
