Presentation
BACKGROUND: Thrombosis and embolization are the most frequent complications associated with the vascular presentation of thoracic outlet syndrome (VTOS). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Respiratoric
-
Rhinitis
In the electrocauterization and no-packing group, there were fewer patients with allergic rhinitis and more smokers. Primary bleeding did not occur in the nasal packing group, but 11 patients (4.4%) had delayed bleeding. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Tonsillar Hypertrophy
RESULTS: The indications for adult tonsillectomy were chronic infection in 153 patients (76.5%); upper airway obstruction secondary to tonsillar hypertrophy in 37 patients (18.5%) and suspected neoplasms in 10 patients (5%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Nausea
Opioids are classically used to manage pain during the perioperative and postoperative periods but can consequently cause respiratory depression, cardiac depression, nausea, vomiting, pruritis, constipation, and sedation. 2, 3, 4, 5 Ketorolac has surfaced [nursingcenter.com]
While narcotics are potent pain relievers, they have undesirable adverse effects such as sedation, respiratory depression, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. [jamanetwork.com]

The procedure was well tolerated, but the patient continued to experience residual nausea. Routine postoperative CT revealed a right RCH. The nausea gradually resolved, and he was discharged on postoperative day 6. [ajnr.org]

Intraabdominal Hemorrhage
On postoperative day 1, she developed signs of intraabdominal hemorrhage. She underwent transcatheter arterial embolization of the left uterine artery and received 3U of packed red blood cells. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Notably, the late postoperative hemorrhage may arise not only from the digestive tract but also intraabdominal hemorrhage through anastomotic stoma. [journals.lww.com]

Abdominal Pain
Upper abdominal pain is the first common symptom. [journals.lww.com]

Psychiatrical

Fear
Limited experience reported in the literature and fears of possible thromboembolic complications make the use of rFVIIa in the treatment of bleeding after cardiac surgery controversial. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Since its first description, it has been undergoing several modifications, aiming at diminishing its complications and bleeding is the most common and feared of them (2). [arquivosdeorl.org.br]
Neurologic
-
Aphasia
However, the patient developed severe hemiplegia and aphasia because of the in-situ hemorrhage 1 day later. Laboratory tests indicated disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) leading to the postoperative hemorrhage. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The next morning, the patient developed severe hemiplegia and aphasia due to the in-situ hemorrhage (Figure 1 e-f). [wjso.biomedcentral.com]

Basal Ganglia Hemorrhage

Meningism
The onset manifestation included signs of intracranial hypertension and/or meningeal irritation (71.4%), brain herniation (14.3%), seizures (9.5%), and syncope (4.8%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Other Pathologies
-
Lymphocytic Infiltrate
The pancreatic tissue showed chronic inflammation and lymphocytic infiltration and fibrosis, and abundant IgG4 cells. After the surgery, the patient suffered twice from postoperative hemorrhage (9 and 16 mos). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Herein, we speculate that apart from the pancreas (abundant IgG4-positive cells and lymphocytes infiltration), the spleen may also be involved. [journals.lww.com]

Brain Edema
CONCLUSIONS: It is concluded from our data that, vigilant rehemostasis challenged by ketamine or hypervolemia-induced hemodynamic stress minimizes postoperative hemorrhage without producing troublesome brain edema. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment
In the 6 hour period after rFVIIa treatment, transfusion of blood products was reduced. The international normalized ratio decreased after treatment (1.6 versus 0.9, P .01). One patient experienced perioperative stroke. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
SPPH incidence rates of multi-level treatments To determine whether the multi-level surgical treatments could increase the incidence rate of SPPH, comparison was conducted between patients who received UPPP as the only treatment (319 cases) and patients [scholarlypages.org]
Prognosis
The prognosis of postpancreatectomy hemorrhage depends mainly on the presence of a preceding pancreatic fistula. [pancreas.imedpub.com]

Epidemiology
This study elucidates the epidemiology and postoperative hemorrhage of inpatient tonsillectomies in Taiwanese children. METHODS: This study used the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database for analysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This review will also consider descriptive epidemiological study designs including case series, individual case reports and descriptive cross sectional studies. Search strategy The search strategy aims to find both published and unpublished studies. [nursingcenter.com]
Pathophysiology
Delayed hemorrhage has more complex pathophysiology and requires a multimodality approach for its management. In this paper, we review the recent articles related to postoperative hemorrhage after major pancreatobiliary surgery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prevention
This study was conducted to determine the guidelines appropriate for the prevention and management of hemorrhagic complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
