Major vascular injury during a spinal surgery is a rare but most dreaded complication.
A 39 years old female undergoing microscopic lumbar discectomy suddenly developed severe hypotension on table. The procedure was abandoned and the patient turned supine. It was diagnosed to be a major vessel tear and the patient was taken up for immediate successful vascular repair. To best of our knowledge such a repair procedure has not been described in literature.
Majority of such vascular injuries are dealt with primary repair of the defect by a vascular surgeon; however in our case the rent was big and placed on the undersurface making it very difficult for the vascular surgeon to approach or repair it primarily.
脊柱手术期间发生的主要血管损伤是一种罕见但最可怕的并发症。
一名39岁女性在接受显微腰椎间盘切除术时,术中突然出现严重低血压。手术中止,患者转为仰卧位。诊断为大血管撕裂,患者随即接受了成功的血管修复手术。据我们所知,文献中尚未描述过此类修复手术。
大多数此类血管损伤由血管外科医生进行缺损的一期修复;然而在我们的病例中,裂口较大且位于下表面,这使得血管外科医生很难进行一期接近或修复。
