AbstractIn the absence of radioopaque marker, the diagnosis of textiloma, a rare iatrogenic lesion, is difficult. The wide use of abdominal ultrasonography significantly improved the preoperative diagnosis, the most typical image being that of a echogenic area with a posterior shadow cone. Nine cases of intraabdominal textiloma, in the diagnosis of which ultrasound played the most intra-abdominal textiloma, in the diagnosis of which ultrasound played the most important role, are presented. Although the ultrasound image is not specific, it is nevertheless enough suggestive the diagnosis of textiloma and thus for indicating an early surgery, before complications occur.
