During the operation, hemostatic matrix (as known Floseal (R)) was used to prevent pulmonary laceration-associated bleeding. When F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography was performed for staging after surgery, intense F-18-FDG uptake was observed in the cicatricial fibrotic tissue in the operation area, and no significant change was observed in that area during the 4-year follow-up. Because it remained stable for several years without treatment, this finding was thought to be due to a foreign body reaction caused by the homeostatic material.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHomeostatic matrixfalse positivitypositron emission tomographylung cancerEditorial32323323610.4274/mirt.galenos.2023.92499378703002-s2.0-85175044053Q31262824WOS:001089709800007N/A
