Among the possible complications of hemodialysis polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft creation, perigraft seromas are rare, but sometimes troublesome. Debridement with drainage is usually the method of treatment. However, recurrence is not unusual. Herein we describe 2 cases of recurrent perigraft seroma treated by a simple but effective surgical method: excision of the pseudocapsule and revisi...

Perigraft seromas are uncommon after surgical repair of the thoracic aorta with woven polyester grafts. A 50-year-old woman required redo sternotomy for the treatment of a perigraft seroma 6 months after total arch replacement for acute type A dissection. After removal of a jelly-like mass, a prosthetic graft was covered with fibrin glue, and the bilateral pleurae beside the graft were opened w...

Perigraft seroma is a rare complication of polytetrafluoroethylene grafts especially in the lower limb. It is often difficult to treat and recurrence is common. We present a case of a young woman who sustained a persistent perigraft seroma following a polytetrafluoroethylene graft in the proximal thigh, which was implanted as an alternative to an arteriovenous fistula. The cause was not ascerta...

Introduction: Auricular seroma is a benign condition of the pinna usually following blunt trauma. This condition which presents with a simple swelling of the pinna is occasionally associated with pain and may result in permanent disfigurement of the pinna owing to delay in diagnosis or mismanagement. Various techniques have been proposed and practiced over the years to treat this uncompli...

Seroma Is a collection of fluid called serum that gets collected at the site inguinal hernia surgery. It is common after repair with mesh. Usually seroma develops 7 to 10 day operation but can develop even earlier depending upon amount tissue dissection. More dissection more chances development seroma. The in usually clear or straw colored. generally does not require any treatment; it disappear...

Drainshavebeenplacedperioperativelyduring thyroidsurgery with the notion that doing so would prevents complications like hematoma and seroma formation postoperatively, but the literature lacks any candid data to support this concept. The incidence rates of hematomas requiring surgical intervention are low, reportedly 0–1.5%.1,2 A number of trials have been published to evaluate the need for pla...

We report the case of young man with acute aortic dissection type A treated by Bentall operation. Postoperatively the patient was febrile and echocardiography revealed fluid collection around the aortic graft. Indicated surgery revealed sterile perigraft seroma which recurred after reoperation, Corticosteroids were therefore administered. Ten months after the Bentall operation the patient was t...

Abstract Aim Seroma that can be seen after endoscopic completely extraperitoneal inguinal hernioplasty (TEP) is a major problem in patients who are concerned about recurrence.In this study,a prospective study design was prepared our clinic order to see the incidence of seroma afterTEP and effect closed system negative pressure drainage, which one methods thought reduce it. Methods January2021-F...

Background: Surgical therapy is still the mainstay of for breast cancer, and modified radical mastectomy (MRM) most frequently performed procedure. Seroma formation after surgery a complication that often found due to dead space anatomically. A low albumin level indicates an ongoing systemic response one marker seroma. Aim To determine postoperative complications in cancer patients, namely inci...
