| description | An accidentally retained sponge inside the body of a patient (gossypiboma) is a rare and serious adverse event after a surgical procedure with serious medicolegal implications and complications. It is commonly associated with abdominal surgeries with cholecystectomy most commonly implicated. Whorl-like appearance or mottled translucencies and radiopaque marker on imaging is diagnostic. Transmural migration into a hollow viscous has been infrequently reported. The preferred approach for the removal of gossypiboma is surgery. However, in cases of complete transmural migration, endoscopic removal remains a viable option. |
