Sacrocolpopexy is the gold standard treatment for apical compartment prolapse with reported success rates of 78-100%. Spondylodiscitis is a rare complication of sacrocolpopexy and includes a spectrum of spinal infections such as discitis, osteomyelitis, epidural abscess, meningitis, subdural empyema, and spinal cord abscess. Here we report a case of spondylodiscitis following laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy with long-term follow-up and discuss management of spondylodiscitis after abdominal sacrocolpopexy, with a review of the literature.
骶骨阴道固定术是治疗顶端盆腔脏器脱垂的金标准，报道的成功率为78%-100%。脊椎椎间盘炎是骶骨阴道固定术的一种罕见并发症，包括一系列脊柱感染，如椎间盘炎、骨髓炎、硬膜外脓肿、脑膜炎、硬膜下积脓和脊髓脓肿。在此，我们报告一例腹腔镜骶骨阴道固定术后发生脊椎椎间盘炎并进行长期随访的病例，并讨论经腹骶骨阴道固定术后脊椎椎间盘炎的处理，同时对文献进行综述。
