유착방지제 사용 후 발생한 이물반응 1예

Abstract

Postsurgical adhesion formation is a significant clinical problem within every surgical specialty. Currently, adhesion barriers are used in many surgical interventions and while theyhave become a subject of an increasing interest for their effectiveness, there has not been anyreports on the adverse effects of these anti-adhesion agents. Three different types of antiadhesiveagents (SurgiWrapⓇ, Guardix-SolⓇ, InterceedⓇ) have been noted as effective in adhesionprevention. We report, with a review of literature, on a patient who had a foreign body reactionthat caused a side effect of anti-adhesion SurgiWrapⓇ after thyroid surgery.
