Abstract
|
|
|
|
Great vessel injury is a rare but well-known complication of lumbar disc surgery, which may result in acute or fatal outcomes of delayed diagnosis. Thus, early detection and proper management is vital. The authors report a case of retroperitoneal hemorrhage with arteriovenous fistula and pseudoaneurysm after lumbar microdiscectomy. The patient was successfully managed by endovascular intervention using a stent graft. Endovascular repair is a minimally invasive and efficient treatment modality with considerably low morbidity and mortality.
