Absorbable hemostatic agents are commonly used in clinical practice and their imaging appearance is less known. In our case series, we demonstrate how absorbable hemostatic agents can masquerade as other clinically and medicolegally significant conditions such as gossypiboma and infected collections. Through our report, we aimed to describe the imaging features of absorbable hemostatic agents, to compare them with their imaging mimics, and provide a comprehensive review of the available literature.

[A clinical comparative study of domestic nasal packing sponge and imported nasopore sponge in post-sinusotomy care].

This study aims to investigate the differences in hemostatic efficacy and patient comfort between an innovative domestically produced biodegradable nasal packing sponge and a traditional absorbent sponge following endoscopic nasal surgery. A prospective, randomized controlled trial design was utilized, including 30 patients who were divided into two groups according to random allocation, each receiving one of the two types of nasal packing. The study assessed the hemostatic efficacy, comfort, and safety of the materials by comparing the rates of no bleeding within 24 hours after packing, re-bleeding rates after 48 hours, pain ratings in the head and nasal areas, scores on a visual analog scale for nasal ocular symptoms, and safety indicators between the two groups.

Although hemostatic powders are commonly used in clinical and emergency settings, they frequently show poor absorption, raise cytotoxicity issues, and are not effective for fatal non-compressible bleeding. The purpose of this research is to create a self-gelling hemostatic powder based on chitosan, bentonite, and sodium polyacrylate (CBS) to improve the hemostatic effect. When liquid comes into contact with CBS powders, they can fuse and form a stable hydrogel in less than 30s.

This retrospective study evaluated the safety and efficacy of SURGICEL® Powder-Absorbable Hemostatic Powder (SP) made from oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Ninety-one patients who underwent TKA at Peking University Third Hospital between January 2024 and July 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Hemostatic effectiveness was evaluated by comparing perioperative blood loss, hemoglobin (Hb) levels, hematocrit (HCT), and transfusion rates.

This article aims to define the clinical, radiological, and pathological characteristics of non-resorbed oxidised cellulose-induced pseudotumours to raise awareness among surgeons and radiologists, to prevent misdiagnosis, and avoid unnecessary invasive procedures and delays in adjuvant oncological treatments. A systematic review of oxidised resorbable cellulose (ORC)-induced pseudotumours of the head and neck was conducted following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Articles were retrieved from PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, and Web of Science.
