Abstract
BACKGROUND: The role of tranexamic acid in patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is not clearly defined. The aim of our study is to systematically review the existing evidence on the role of tranexamic acid in patients undergoing ESS.
METHODOLOGY: Systematic search of MEDLINE (1950 - 2013), EMBASE (1980 - 2013), metaRegister, Cochrane Library and ISI conference proceedings was carried out.
RESULTS: Five randomised controlled trials with 192 patients receiving tranexamic acid and 196 controls were included. Meta-analysis demonstrated that mean estimated blood loss was significantly lower, and surgical field quality was significantly better in tranexamic acid group. There was no significant difference in mean operative time between the two groups. No significant adverse effects were noted in either of the groups.
CONCLUSION: Intra-operative use of local and systemic tranexamic acid in ESS, results in significantly reduced estimated blood loss and improved surgical field quality. There is no statistically significant difference seen in operative time and incidence of side effects. Well-conducted larger RCTs using validated objective outcome measures and reporting on minor and major complications are required.
