Summary: | : Significant intraoperative and postoperative blood loss are rare but possibly life-threatening complications after lung resection surgery either during open or minimally invasive procedures. Microporous Polysaccharide Haemospheres (ARISTA™AH) have demonstrated time-efficient haemostasis, lower postoperative blood volumes and a lower blood transfusion requirement, without any identified adverse events across other specialities. The primary aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of ARISTA™AH on short-term postoperative outcomes in thoracic surgery. Our secondary aim was to compare ARISTA™AH with other commonly used haemostatic agents.
: We retrospectively reviewed a prospectively collected database of consecutive early-stage lung cancer patients surgically treated in two European centres (October 2020-December 2022). Exclusion criteria included open surgery, patients with coagulopathy/anticoagulant medication, major intraoperative bleeding, non-anatomical lung resection and age |
