Abstract
|
|
|
Hematoma resulting in acute respiratory distress associated with anterior cervical spine surgery is rare; however, it is a serious adverse complication and occurs primarily within postoperative three days and is cured in the hospital. Rarely, delayed hematoma occurs after discharge from the hospital, and treatment of respiration is difficult. In this review, we report on a case of acute respiratory distress due to delayed hematoma following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, which occurred at postoperative five days.
