Omental Mass Caused by Pericolic Vegetable Granuloma: A Rare Case Report [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Colorectal Research, 2014
Introduction Foreign materials typically produce a reaction by multinucleated giant cells. Foreign bodies (such as vegetable cells in food material) in the omentum have not been reported to produce an omental mass.

Engineering Pendant Group Chemistry to Control Hydrophilicity and Oxidative Degradation of Thioketal‐Based Biomaterials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thioketal (TK) polymers are promising biomaterials due to their selective biodegradation by reactive oxygen species (ROS), but they respond slowly to physiologic doses of ROS. Here, the TK bond's pendant groups are modified to enhance the degradation of TK‐based implants both in vitro and in vivo.

A mathematical model for foreign body reactions in 2D [PDF]

International Journal of Computer Mathematics, 2011
The foreign body reactions are commonly referred to the network of immune and inflammatory reactions of human or animals to foreign objects placed in tissues. They are basic biological processes, and are also highly relevant to bioengineering applications in implants, as fibrotic tissue formations surrounding medical implants have been found to ...

Gossypiboma, a Rare Cause of Abdominal Pain: A Case Report

Reports
Gossypiboma is a retained surgical item, most commonly gauze or sponge, inadvertently left inside a patient’s body after surgery. Although preventable, it can cause severe complications and is often underreported due to medicolegal concerns. We present a

Foreign Body Reaction Associated With Artificial LARS Ligaments: A Retrieval Study

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2018
Background: Artificial ligaments have been developed and used in the treatment of ligamentous injuries since the 1970s. The early generation of artificial ligaments showed promising short-term results but resulted in high rates of rupture and ...

Abscess formation caused by a foreign body reaction to a poly-d, l-lactic acid (PDLLA) absorbable plate for zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2022
Background The poly-d, l-lactic acid absorbable plate does not contain poly l-lactic acid, which is the main factor in foreign body reactions; therefore, with use of this plate, a foreign body reaction is unlikely.
