Background and Importance Intracranial textilomas are retained surgical sponges presenting as pseudomass lesions in postoperative patients usually with surrounding inflammatory reaction. Though rare, these are commonly misdiagnosed as postoperative hemorrhagic collections, abscesses, radionecrosis, or residual/recurrent mass lesions. We describe the imaging findings of intracranial textilomas diagnosed in four patients on follow-up postoperative imaging along with their characteristic imaging findings to help radiologists/neurosurgeons make accurate diagnosis. Clinical Presentation One patient had chronic headache without any focal neurological deficits. Rest of the patients were asymptomatic at the time of presentation Conclusion In postoperative scans, possibility of textilomas should be considered apart from residual/recurrent lesions, postoperative abscesses, or radionecrosis. Correct and timely diagnosis is important for further treatment planning and patient care.

“…Gossypiboma is a term derived from "gossypium" (cotton in Latin) and "boma" (hiding place in Swahili) [Kassi, 2018]. As surgery progressed, the use of synthetic materials took precedence over the use of cotton, which was once used to ensure hemostasis, hence the term textilome (derived from textiles and the suffix "ome" which means growth) [Nassar, 2004]. Forgetting an object, a compress, surgical equipment or any other preoperative element in a patient's body is a dramatic incident or accident not only for the patient, but also for the surgeon.…”

“…Although the actual incidence is underestimated due to the forensic nature of the condition, there are figures in the literature ranging from 1/1,000 to 1/10,000. [Nassar, 2004;Arsalane, 2005]. The risk of forgetting a foreign body is linked to certain particular situations, as Gawandé points out that uncontrolled bleeding, obesity, and lack of compress count are all factors that increase this risk [Gawande, 2003].…”

“…The risk of forgetting a foreign body is linked to certain particular situations, as Gawandé points out that uncontrolled bleeding, obesity, and lack of compress count are all factors that increase this risk [Gawande, 2003]. All forms of surgery can be involved with various localizations: cranial [Nassar, 2004], thoracic [Arsalane, 2005], urological [Doh, 2017], gynaecological [Osman, 2013]. The most frequent localization is abdominal-pelvic, which can have several clinical aspects, linked to the biological evolution of the foreign body within the abdomen.…”

Introduction: Textiloma or Gossypiboma is used to describe a foreign body composed of a compress (s) or surgical field (s) forgotten at an operating site. Case report: Authors reported two cases of intestinal migrant textiloma in patients all previously operated on by cesarean section. The two patients consulted for a chronic painful abdominal mass. Abdominal ultrasound showed a superficial anterior structure in favor of foreign body in the first patient. The second one concluded that there was a right ovarian cyst. The surgery discovered a greek mass in both cases. Resection of the intestinal mass was performed followed by end to end anastomosis. The enterostomy of hail mass revealed an abdominal compress in each case. Conclusion: Forgetting a compress or abdominal field during surgery is a tragedy for the surgeon not only because of its forensic aspect but also because of the suffering endured by the patient. Indeed, actions trying to prevent this type of error are implemented in most developed countries; it is time for each hospital to adopt preventive measures, even if just only the compresses counting during the procedure.
