BACKGROUND No reports regarding the risk factors for postoperative bleeding after surgery for lung cancer are available presently, and no practical management strategy has been yet developed. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for postoperative bleeding requiring surgery, and we further discuss possible management strategies based on our findings. PATIENTS AND METHODS...

oral surgery in patients with bleeding disorders is associated with a high risk of bleeding during and after surgery. this article is aimed to present the case of an eight-year-old girl suffering from severe fanconi anemia with pancytopenia who underwent a dental extraction. the hemostatic effect of local administration of tranexamic acid in combination with a primary suture seems to be extreme...

When this complication occurs, in addition to the associated pain, the patient usually requires an arthrocentesis to avoid loss of joint mobility. Sometimes this problem ends up associ...

Introduction: This study aimed to compare operation time, intraoperative bleeding and postoperative pain between cold dissection tonsillectomy and harmonic scalpel tonsillectomy.  Materials and Methods: In this single-blinded clinical trial, 32 patients aged 14–48 were enrolled. Each patient randomly underwent tonsillectomy using the harmonic scalpel on one side and cold dissection on the other...

Objective: To review the characteristics of and the procedure for preventing postoperative bleeding after neck surgery. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of 9 patients (9/893; 1.0%) with postoperative bleeding who required reoperation was performed to analyze clinical findings. Results: There was no significant difference in the incidence of bleeding between types of surgical proced...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW New data have been made available in the field of haemostasis and thrombosis. Some long-awaited answers to important questions have been published, and some debates have benefited from an updated perspective. RECENT FINDINGS Two important domains are addressed in this update: massive bleeding (1/1/1 ratios and fibrinogen concentrates) and the management of direct oral antico...

PURPOSE It is not uncommon for aspirin therapy to be withheld before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) because it is thought to increase the risk of postoperative bleeding. Many studies have shown that continued aspirin therapy reduces postoperative myocardial infarction and increases survival. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of preoperative aspirin on postoperative blee...

AIM To investigated the relationship between postoperative bleeding following gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and individual antithrombotic agents. METHODS A total of 2488 gastric neoplasms in 2148 consecutive patients treated between May 2001 and June 2016 were studied.
