Biomed Mater 2024; 19:055042. [PMID: 39116908 DOI: 10.1088/1748-605x/ad6d22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
During the healing process after intra-nasal surgery, the growth and repair of damaged tissues can result in the development of postoperative adhesions. Various techniques have been devised to minimize the occurrence of postoperative adhesions which include insertion of stents in the middle meatus, application of removable nasal packing, and utilizing biodegradable materials with antiadhesive properties. This study assesses the efficacy of two sodium hyaluronate (SH)-based freeze-dried hydrogel composites in preventing postoperative nasal adhesions, comparing them with commonly used biodegradable materials in nasal surgery. The freeze-dried hydrogels, sodium hyaluronate and collagen 1(SH-COL1) and sodium hyaluronate, carboxymethyl cellulose, and collagen 1 (SH-CMC-COL1), were evaluated for their ability to reduce bleeding time, promote wound healing, and minimize fibrous tissue formation. Results showed that SH-CMC-COL1 significantly reduced bleeding time compared to both biodegradable polyurethane foam and SH-COL1. Both SH-COL1 and SH-CMC-COL1 exhibited enhanced wound healing effects, as indicated by significantly greater wound size reduction after two weeks compared to the control. Histological analyses revealed significant differences in re-epithelialization and blood vessel count among all tested materials, suggesting variable initial wound tissue response. Although all treatment groups had more epithelial growth, with X-SCC having higher blood vessel count at 7 d post treatment, all treatment groups did not differ in all histomorphometric parameters by day 14. However, the long-term application of SH-COL1 demonstrated a notable advantage in reducing nasal adhesion formation compared to all other tested materials. This indicates the potential of SH-based hydrogels, particularly SH-COL1, in mitigating postoperative complications associated with nasal surgery. These findings underscore the versatility and efficacy of SH-based freeze-dried hydrogel composites for the management of short-term and long-term nasal bleeding with an anti-adhesion effect. Further research is warranted to optimize their clinical use, particularly in understanding the inflammatory factors influencing tissue adhesions and assessing material performance under conditions mimicking clinical settings. Such insights will be crucial for refining therapeutic approaches and optimizing biomaterial design, ultimately improving patient outcomes in nasal surgery.

[PMID: 37409795 DOI: 10.1002/lary.30865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The histological findings of wound healing depending on different nasal packing materials and replacement periods were lacking. METHODS Mucosal defects were created in the nasal septum of rabbits and covered with Spongel®, Algoderm®, or Nasopore®, which were cleaned on Day 14. To investigate the effect of replacement durations, Spongel® was removed on Days 3 and 7. All nasal septal specimens were collected on Day 28. Samples without packing material were prepared as controls. Depending on residual packing materials in the regenerated tissue, specimens were classified into the remnant and non-remnant groups, and morphology was compared using epithelium grade score and subepithelial thickness. RESULTS The epithelium grade score in the Spongel-14d group was lower than that in the other groups (p < 0.05). Subepithelial thickness was higher in the Algoderm-14d and Spongel-14d groups (p < 0.05). Epithelium grade scores were higher and subepithelial thicknesses were lower in the Spongel-3d and -7d groups than in the Spongel-14d group. Epithelium grade score was lower and subepithelial thickness was higher in the remnant group (n = 10) than in the non-remnant group (n = 15; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Differences in packing materials and placement durations affected wound healing of nasal mucosa. The selection of appropriate packing materials and replacement duration was considered essential for ideal wound healing. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE NA Laryngoscope, 134:562-568, 2024.

Optimizing Perioperative Care in Transsphenoidal Pituitary Surgery: Considerations for Enhanced Recovery After Surgery. J Craniofac Surg 2023; 34:83-91. [PMID: 35968948 DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000008893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify key recommendations for maximizing the efficiency and efficacy of perioperative care in transsphenoidal pituitary surgery. METHODS The authors performed a comprehensive literature search of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols implemented for patients undergoing transsphenoidal adenomectomy (TSA); individual recommendations were abstracted, and the evidence base thoroughly reviewed. RESULTS The authors identified 19 individual recommendations pertinent to the care of patients undergoing TSA, which were subdivided into preoperative (n=6), intraoperative (n=6), and postoperative (n=7) interventions. Key factors recommended for minimizing length of stay, preventing readmission, and improving patient outcomes included comprehensive patient education, multidisciplinary evaluation, avoidance of routine lumbar drain placement and nasal packing, and rigorous postoperative monitoring of pituitary function and salt-water imbalances. The overall level of evidence for 7/19 (37%) implemented recommendations was found to be low, suggesting a need for continued research in this patient population. CONCLUSION Several key interventions should be considered in the development of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols for TSA, which may aid in further decreasing length of stay and promoting positive patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The discomfort and complications have always been problems for nasal packing materials. This study provided a new nasal packing material called high expansion degradable cotton (HEDC). METHODS Nasal endoscopic surgery was used to establish a dog model of nasal bleeding, and wound surfaces were filled with Merocel, Nasopore and HEDC, respectively. Intraoperative and postoperative bleeding of 24 h was calculated. We evaluate the absorbability score, adhesion score, infection sore and nasal mucosal epithelium in postoperative 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. HE staining and electron microscopy were used to evaluate the recovery of nasal mucosa. RESULTS There was no significant difference in nasal bleeding between HEDC, Merocel and Nasopore. Nasal endoscopic examination revealed HEDC absorbability of score, adhesion score, infection score were significantly lower than Merocel and Nasopore. The epithelialization time of HEDC was significantly shorter than that of Merocel and Nasopore. HE staining showed that HEDC and Nasopore could significantly reduce scar hyperplasia on the wound surface. The results of electron microscopy suggested that HEDC could protect the edge cilia of the wound. CONCLUSION HEDC could be used as new choice for hemostasis after nasal endoscopic surgery, which could reduce nasal epithelialization time, and protect wound edge cilia.

Abstract
Chitosan dressing might be promising to promote the recovery following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). However, the results remain controversial. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the influence of chitosan dressing on ESS. PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases were systematically searched. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of chitosan dressing on endoscopic sinus surgery were included. Two investigators independently searched articles, extracted data, and assessed the quality of included studies. The primary outcomes were synechia and hemostasis. Meta-analysis was performed using random-effect model. Four RCTs involving 268 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Overall following ESS, compared with control intervention, chitosan dressing significantly reduced synechia (RR = 0.25; 95% CI 0.13-0.49; P < 0.0001) and promoted hemostasis (RR = 1.70; 95% CI 1.37-2.11; P < 0.00001), but showed no impact on granulations (RR = 1.18; 95% CI 0.72-1.95; P = 0.52), mucosal edema (RR = 0.88; 95% CI 0.60-1.29; P = 0.51), crusting (RR = 0.85; 95% CI 0.48-1.53; P = 0.60), and infection (RR = 0.88; 95% CI 0.51-1.52; P = 0.64). Compared to control intervention, chitosan dressing could significantly decrease edema and improve hemostasis, but had no effect on granulations, mucosal edema, crusting and infection.
