Paraplegia associated with the use of oxidized cellulose in posterolateral thoracotomy incisions.

H D Short1.   

Abstract

Three patients suffered permanent neurologic injury after oxidized regenerated cellulose migrated into the spinal canal after thoracotomy. These cases are reported to alert surgeons of this potential complication when oxidized cellulose is used to achieve hemostasis in the posterior angle of the thoracotomy incision.
