    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Surgical Hemostasis

    Background:

    • Turbinate resection can lead to challenging postoperative bleeding.
    • Effective hemostasis is crucial for patient recovery and preventing complications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of microfibrillar collagen hemostat (Avitene) in controlling bleeding post-turbinate resection.
    • To assess the utility of a syringe-delivered granular form of Avitene for nasal cavity hemostasis.

    Main Methods:

    • Application of granular microfibrillar collagen hemostat (Avitene) via syringe.
    • Observation of hemostatic effect in patients undergoing turbinate resection.

    Main Results:

    • Avitene demonstrated effectiveness in controlling bleeding.

  • The granular form facilitated conformity to irregular nasal cavity surfaces.
  • Management of bleeding in deep nasal recesses was simplified.

    • Conclusions:

    • Microfibrillar collagen hemostat (Avitene) is a valuable tool for managing bleeding after turbinate surgery.
    • Syringe delivery of granular Avitene enhances its application in complex nasal anatomy.
    • This method offers a practical solution for difficult bleeding scenarios in the nasal cavity.
