Topical use of tranexamic acid can effectively decrease hidden blood loss during posterior lumbar spinal fusion surgery

open access: yesMedicine, 2017
In spinal fusion surgery, total blood loss (TBL) is composed of visible blood loss from the surgical field and wound drainage, and hidden blood loss (HBL). Until now, no published studies exist reporting the effect of topical use of tranexamic acid (tTXA)
