You Can't Take the South Out of the Girl

Cured salted pork crafted as a nasal tampon and packed within the nasal vaults successfully stopped nasal hemorrhage promptly, effectively, and without sequelae … To our knowledge, this represents the first description of nasal packing with strips of cured pork for treatment of life-threatening hemorrhage in a patient with Glanzmann thrombasthenia.
PORK CRAFTED AS A NASAL TAMPON is the best phrase of 2012 so far.
