“…However, this may be incorrect as it is more plausible to consider that the word is derived from gossypium and oma, which is a suffix indicating tumour, as in carcinoma and lymphoma, with the “b” added to separate two vowels [2] . Other terms used to describe the condition are textiloma (from textile or woven fabrics) [3] , cottonoid, cottonballoma, muslinoma (from muslin) [4] and gauzeoma [5] . As surgical sponges are made nowadays of different materials in addition to cotton, the word textiloma with its more collective meaning, may be more appropriate.…”

HighlightsRetained foreign objects (RFO), is one of the most dreadful complications of surgery.Despite a seemingly correct count, laparotomy pads were missed at the end of surgery in three patients.Human errors continue to occur and RFO continues to plague the surgical practice.To avoid human error, one of several recent technologies designed to check for items left behind, should be employed.In our report, we give an important tip on how to extract the retained surgical sponge without causing much damage.

“…In this regard, the average time of presentation was found to be 6.9 years [8] . However, latency of up to 37 years has been reported [3] , [9] . This highlights the fact that, some cases may go around undiscovered for years or may never be discovered.…”

Gossypiboma or textiloma is a rare but very unfortunate complication of surgery. It refers to a retained foreign body usually forgotten within the abdominal cavity at the end of an operation. It may be a surgical sponge, gauze pad or other form of textile.We present the case of a middle aged lady who following cholecystectomy had a forgotten gauze which underwent transmural migration and was later expelled via the rectum demonstrated by radiological studies.

Background: Gossypiboma refers to incidences of retained foreign bodies usually forgotten within the abdominal cavity at the end of an operation. It may be a surgical sponge, gauze pad, or other forms of textiles, instruments. Aims and objective: To try and identify the factors which are responsible for the formation of Gossypiboma. Material and method: A Retrospective study was carried out in patients presented with postop (following open surgery) complications; diagnosis is made first followed by looking into possible causative factors. Results: In our study of 900 patients (age group>20 yrs; underwent open surgery in past); Out of 900 patients included in the study, it was found that 5 patients were found to have retained foreign objects in the abdomen. Among four patients two were operated for caesarian-section, one for open cholecystectomy, and one underwent laparotomy for intestinal perforation. The Surgical safety checklist was not being followed in all five cases; the adequacy and compatibility of OT staff was questionable in 2 cases. Conclusion: By following standard surgical protocol of Surgical safety checklist along with proper teamwork (good rapport and communication among the dedicated OT staffs and operating surgeon); allocation of ample working hours; regular teaching and training of OT staff personnel about the maintenance of standard surgical protocols and finally addressing the consequences of legal repercussions as well as ignominy faced by hospital administration; such rarely occurring incidences can be minimized to never happening incidence. Keywords: Gossypiboma, Mops, Sponge, Surgical safety checklist.
