Abstract:
Objective To estimate time of gauze swabs left in abdomen with comparison of the number of foreign body giant cells,theirs nuclei and the proportion of type Ⅰ collagenous fibers to type Ⅲ and argentaffin fibers in different times.Methods F344 rat models dependent 2,8,30,120 days were established by gauze swab fixed in the abdomen,and were studied on gauze swab wrapped by greater omentum,the number of foreign body giant cells and theirs nuclei by HE staining,and the proportion of type Ⅰ collagenous fibers to type Ⅲ and argentaffin fibers by sirius red and silver staining respectively.The results were analyzed by image analysis system.Results The results showed that number of foreign body giant cells,theirs nuclei and the proportion of type Ⅰ collagenous fibers to type Ⅲ and argentaffin fibers increased gradually(P<0.01)followed the time delayed.The Proportion of type Ⅰ collagenous fibers to argentaffin fibersis Power Function of Days of guaze swab left in rat abdomen(r=0.972).Conclusion The number of foreign body giant cells,theirs nuclei and the proportion of type Ⅰ collagenous fibers to type Ⅲ and argentaffin fibers contribute to the estimation of foreign body(eg.gauze swab)left in abdomen.
