Intestinal Occlusion Induced by Intra-Luminal Textiloma: Case Report

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Intra-luminal textiloma is caused by retention of surgical material in the body. It is due to an inflammatory process responsible of necrosis and progressive penetration of the pad through the intestinal wall. Its diagnosis is difficult because the symptomatology is not specific. The treatment consists in enterotomy and extraction of the textiloma. We report the case of a patient who suffered an intestinal obstruction and surgical exploration resulted in an intra-luminal textiloma. The treatment consisted in a grelic resection carrying the textiloma.
