Textilloma or Gossypiboma refers as surgical sponges left behind in the surgical field during surgery. Although rare, occur commonly in practice and such cases are rarely encountered in the literature due to their under-reporting. A retained surgical sponge is an avoidable surgical complication that can lead to patient morbidity, mortality and profound medico-legal implications.
We report a case of intra-abdominal textiloma discovered early in a 31-year-old woman who underwent cesarean section due to placenta previa.
This complication in our surgical practice is still relevant despite the popularization of the World Health Organization checklist.
The purpose of reporting this case is to awaken practitioners to be more vigilant and avoid such circumstances.
纺织瘤或棉绒瘤是指手术过程中遗留在手术区域的手术海绵。虽然罕见,但在实际操作中较为常见,且由于报告不足,此类病例在文献中很少见。残留手术海绵是一种可避免的手术并发症,可导致患者发病、死亡以及严重的医疗法律问题。
我们报告一例在一名31岁因前置胎盘行剖宫产的女性患者中早期发现的腹腔内纺织瘤病例。
尽管世界卫生组织清单已普及,但这种手术并发症在我们的手术实践中仍然存在。
报告此病例的目的是提醒从业者更加警惕,避免此类情况发生。
