RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common and potentially lethal disease. Approximately 10-20% of the patients progress to necrotizing pancreatitis (NP). The step-up approach is the gold standard approach to managing an infected necrotizing pancreatitis with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. Video-assisted retroperitoneal debridement (VARD) has been described as a safe and feasible approach with high success rates. Multiple studies in the American, European, and Asian populations evaluating the outcomes of VARD have been published; nevertheless, outcomes in the Latin American population are unknown. This study aims to describe a single-center experience of VARD for necrotizing pancreatitis in Colombia with a long-term follow-up. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted between 2016 and 2024. All patients over 18 years old who underwent VARD for necrotizing pancreatitis were included. Demographic, clinical variables, and postoperative outcomes at 30-day follow-up were described. RESULTS: A total of 12 patients were included. The mean age was 55.9 years old (SD 13.73). The median follow-up was 365 days (P25 60; P75 547). Bile origin was the most frequent cause of pancreatitis in 90.1% of the patients. The mean time between diagnosis and surgical management was 78.5 days (SD 22.93). The mean size of the collection was 10.5 cm (SD 3.51). There was no evidence of intraoperative complications. The mean in-hospital length of stay was 65.18 days (SD 26.46). One patient died in a 30-day follow-up. One patient presented an incisional hernia one year after surgery, and there was no evidence of endocrine insufficiency at the follow-up. CONCLUSION: According to our data, the VARD procedure presents similar outcomes to those reported in the literature; a standardized procedure following the STEP-UP procedure minimizes the requirement of postoperative drainages. Long-term follow-up should be performed to rule out pancreatic insufficiency.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Minimally invasive radical nephrectomy is often preferred for larger renal tumours not suitable for partial nephrectomy (1). When performed with a multiport robot, the procedure is routinely performed with a transperitoneal approach, with recent studies highlighting important factors for surgical outcomes, including predictive factors (2), segmental artery unclamping techniques (3), and comparisons of robotic techniques (4). This video shows that SP Robot-Assisted Radical Nephrectomy (RARN) via a lower anterior approach is valuable in challenging cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed SP-RARN on two complex patients using a retroperitoneal lower anterior approach. The first patient, a 54-year-old female with a BMI of 36.8 kg/m², had a ventral hernia and bowel obstruction history, with a 9 cm right middle kidney mass. The second patient, a 58-year-old male with a BMI of 31.19 kg/m², had ESRD and was on peritoneal dialysis for 8 years, with a 3.4x3.7 cm mass in the right superior pole, suspected to be RCC. The surgical technique is detailed in the video. RESULTS: Both procedures were successful, with operative times of 173 and 203 minutes and blood loss of 150 mL. No complications occurred. Patients were discharged after 31 and 38 hours, respectively. Histopathology confirmed RCC. At the 3-month follow-up, no complications or readmissions were reported. Second patient continued peritoneal dialysis without issues. CONCLUSION: Retroperitoneal SP-RARN via the lower anterior approach avoids the peritoneal cavity, making it suitable for certain patients. In these patients, more so than in others, this procedure is feasible, safe, and less morbid than the standard multiport approach.

RESUMEN

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation (OTCT) has emerged in recent years as a potential method for reversing abnormal endocrine and reproductive functions, particularly in patients receiving gonadotoxic cancer treatments having longer survival rates. From its first rodent experiments to human trials, OTCT has evolved tremendously, opening new windows for further utilization. Since then, significant progress has been achieved in terms of techniques used for surgical removal of the tissue, optimal fragment size, freezing and thawing procedures, and appropriate surgical sites for the subsequent reimplementation of the graft. In addition, various approaches have been proposed to decrease the risk of ischemic injury, which is the leading cause of significant follicle loss during neo-angiogenesis. This review aims to discuss the pros and cons of ovarian and retroperitoneal transplantation sites, highlighting the justifications for the viability and efficacy of different transplantation sites as well as the potential advantages and drawbacks of retroperitoneal or preperitoneal area.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are considered standard treatments for stage II seminoma patients; however, these therapies are associated with long-term toxicities. Recently, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection has emerged as an alternative strategy, and the first three phase II trials were published in 2023 with promising results. The present study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate this surgery as an alternative treatment for stage IIA/B seminoma patients. PURPOSE: Seminomas are the most common testicular tumors, often affecting young adult males. Standard treatments for stage II seminomas include chemotherapy and radiation therapy, but these therapies are associated with long-term toxicities. Thus, identifying alternative strategies is paramount. Herein, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to appraise the efficacy and safety of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) for treating this condition. METHODS: We systematically searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases for studies evaluating RPLND as a primary treatment for stage II A/B seminomas. Using a random-effects model, single proportion and means and pooled 2-year recurrence-free survival rates with hazard rates and 95% CI were calculated. RESULTS: Seven studies were included, comprising 331 males with stage II seminomas. In the pooled analysis, the recurrence rate was 17.69% (95% CI 12.31-24.75), and the 2-year RFS rate was 81% (95% CI 0.77-0.86). The complication rate was 9.16% (95% CI 6.16-13.42), the Clavien-Dindo > 2 complication rate was 8.83% (95% CI 5.76-13.31), and the retrograde ejaculation rate was 7.01% (95% CI 3.54-13.40). The median operative time was 174.68 min (95% CI 122.17-249.76 min), median blood loss was 105.91 mL (95% CI 46.89-239.22 mL), and patients with no evidence of lymph node involvement ranged from 0-16%. CONCLUSIONS: Primary RPLNDs for treating stage IIA/B seminomas have favorable RFS rates, with low complication and recurrence rates. These findings provide evidence that this surgery is a viable alternative therapy for these patients.

RESUMEN

Introducción. El espacio extraperitoneal, se define como el segmento topográfico ubicado entre el peritoneo parietal internamente y la fascia transversalis externamente. Como resultado del desarrollo y consolidación de la cirugía laparoscópica, en particular de la herniorrafia inguinal por esta vía, se ha presentado un renovado y creciente interés en esta área anatómica, debido a la importancia de su conocimiento detallado en la cirugía de mínima invasión. Métodos. Se hizo una revisión narrativa de la literatura para presentar una información actualizada y detallada sobre la anatomía del espacio extraperitoneal y su importancia en diferentes procedimientos quirúrgicos realizados actualmente. Resultados. Por fuera del espacio peritoneal, se encuentran las áreas anatómicas externas al peritoneo parietal, que incluyen la preperitoneal y la retroperitoneal. Mediante la laparoscopia, se pueden localizar en estos espacios cinco triángulos anatómicos, además de la corona mortis y el triángulo supra vesical. Conclusión. El conocimiento del espacio extraperitoneal es de gran importancia para el cirujano general, teniendo en cuenta los múltiples procedimientos que requieren el abordaje de esta área topográfica


Introduction. The extraperitoneal space is defined as the topographic segment located between the parietal peritoneum internally and the fascia transversalis externally. As a result of the development and consolidation of laparoscopic surgery, particularly inguinal herniorrhaphy by this route, there has been a renewed and growing interest in this anatomical area, due to the importance of its detailed knowledge in minimally invasive surgery. Methods. A narrative review of the literature was made to present updated and detailed information on the anatomy of the extraperitoneal space and its importance in different surgical procedures currently performed. Results. Outside the peritoneal space are the anatomical areas external to the parietal peritoneum, including the preperitoneal and extraperitoneal. Using laparoscopy, five anatomical triangles, in addition to the corona mortis and the supravesical triangle, can be located in these spaces. Conclusion. Knowledge of the extraperitoneal space is of great importance for the general surgeon, taking into account the multiple procedures that require the approach of this topographic area

RESUMEN

Wunderlich syndrome, or spontaneous renal hemorrhage (SRH), is a rare condition encountered in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD) usually attributed to acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) among other causes. In the literature, colonoscopy is associated with splenic injuries, and renal hemorrhage has not been previously described. Management can range from conservative treatment to angiographic embolization or exploration and nephrectomy. Here we report an unusual case of a 54-year-old woman HD patient who presented with SRH within a few days of colonoscopy. The reason of SRH was rupture of an ACKD cyst. We assumed that colonoscopy was a provoking factor and elaborated hypotheses for its etiopathogenesis. The patient underwent successful left nephrectomy. The importance of this case lies in the fact that colonoscopy is not always an innocent procedure in HD patients, and could be complicated by renal cyst hemorrhage.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy (RPLND) is well established as a primary treatment, especially for high-risk stage I and stage IIA/B nonseminomatous tumors, but its value in seminomatous tumors is underreported (1). Classically, seminomas with isolated retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy are treated with external beam radiation therapy or systemic chemotherapy. Although these modalities are effective, they are associated with significant long-term morbidity (2, 3). Some retrospective studies have demonstrated the potential of RPLND as a first-line treatment for stage IIa seminoma, and two very recent prospective trials, still with interim results: SEMS TRIAL and PRIMETEST(3-7). The RPLND robotic technique has been previously described in the post-chemotherapy scenario, however, surgical videos of primary laparoscopic approach are lacking, especially in seminomatous disease (8). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We present two cases of primary videolaparoscopic RPLND, using different approaches. Case 1: Thirty four years-old, with prior right orchiectomy for mixed tumor. After 8 months he presented an two cm enlarged interaortocaval lymph node. Percutaneous biopsy showed pure seminoma metastasis. Case 2: Thirty three years-old, with previous left orchiectomy for stage I pure seminoma, without risk factors. After nine months, the patient had a three cm enlarged para-aortic lymph node. RESULTS: The surgical time ranged from 150 to 210 minutes, with a maximum bleeding of 300 mL and hospital discharge in 48 hours. In one of the cases, we identified a significant desmoplastic reaction, with firm adhesions to the great vessels, requiring vascular sutures, however, no major complication occurred. Pathological anatomy confirmed pure seminoma lymph node metastases in both cases. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic primary RPLND proved to be technically feasible, with less postoperative pain and early hospital discharge. We understand that more studies should be performed to confirm our oncological results.

RESUMEN

Introdução: Os lipossarcomas são tumores malignos raros de origem mesenquimal, a partir de precursores de adipócitos, podendo ocorrer no retroperitônio. Os lipossarcomas retroperitoneais representam de 0,3% a 0,6% das neoplasias malignas. Em virtude do crescimento lento e assintomático do tumor, tendo como principal manifestação clínica o aumento do volume abdominal, o quadro é comumente acompanhado de um diagnóstico tardio e curso indolente. Relato do caso: Homem, 70 anos de idade, com aumento progressivo abdominal há cerca de dois anos. A ressonância magnética demonstrou uma formação em topografia retroperitoneal à direita, promovendo importante desvio das estruturas da linha média, com presença de conteúdo sólido acima da estrutura supradescrita. Foi submetido à laparotomia xifopúbica, com apresentação de massa gigante retroperitoneal que ocupava todo abdome, com deslocamento das alças intestinais e rim direito. Foram realizadas ressecção do tumor em bloco, rafia diafragmática e colecistectomia. Após três meses do primeiro procedimento cirúrgico, o paciente apresentou novamente aumento do volume abdominal, com confirmação de recidiva tumoral após realização de exames de imagem. Um novo procedimento cirúrgico foi realizado, revelando tumor com cápsula rompida e múltiplos coágulos. Após alta hospitalar, foi submetido a sessões de radioterapia complementares à cirurgia. Conclusão: A rápida reapresentação do paciente após o surgimento da recidiva, comum nesses casos, foi essencial para a redução de resíduos na segunda cirurgia, evidenciando a importância de exames periódicos para o reconhecimento precoce da recorrência local. No presente caso, também foram realizadas sessões de radioterapia, com a finalidade de evitar a recidiva, sem sucesso.


Introduction: Liposarcomas are rare malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin, from adipocyte precursors, which may occur in the retroperitoneum. Retroperitoneal liposarcomas account for 0.3% to 0.6% of malignant neoplasms and the main symptom is increased abdominal volume. Due to the slow and asymptomatic growth of the tumor, the condition is commonly associated with late diagnosis and indolent course. Case report: 70-year-old man with progressive abdominal enlargement for about two years. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a formation in the right retroperitoneal topography, promoting significant deviation of the midline structures. Furthermore, there was a solid content above the structure described above. A xiphopubic laparotomy was performed with presentation of giant retroperitoneal mass occupying the entire abdomen, displacing the intestinal loops and the right kidney. En bloc tumor resection, diaphragmatic raffia and cholecystectomy were performed. Three months after the first surgical procedure, the patient presented a novel increase of the abdominal volume which imaging tests showed tumor recurrence. A new surgical procedure was performed, revealing a tumor with a ruptured capsule and multiple clots. After hospital discharge, the patient was submitted to complementary radiotherapy Conclusion: The fast return of the patient after the recurrence, common in these cases, was essential to reduce the residues of the second surgery, highlighting the importance of periodic examinations for the early recognition of local recurrence. In this case, radiotherapy sessions were also performed to prevent recurrence, however, unsuccessful.


Introducción: Los liposarcomas son tumores malignos raros de origen mesenquimatoso, a partir de precursores de los adipocitos, y pueden presentarse en el retroperitoneo. Los liposarcomas retroperitoneales representan del 0,3% al 0,6% de las neoplasias malignas, siendo el síntoma principal el aumento de volumen abdominal. Debido al crecimiento lento y asintomático del tumor, la condición se acompaña comúnmente de un diagnóstico tardío y un curso indolente. Informe del caso: Varón, 70 años, con agrandamiento abdominal progresivo de unos 2 años de evolución. La resonancia magnética nuclear mostró una formación en la topografía retroperitoneal hacia la derecha, promoviendo una desviación significativa de las estructuras de la línea media. Además, se observó un contenido sólido por encima de la estructura descrita anteriormente. Considerando la principal hipótesis diagnóstica, liposarcoma de retroperitoneo, se realizó laparotomía, evidenciándose una masa retroperitoneal gigante que ocupaba todo el abdomen, que desplazaba las asas intestinales y el riñón derecho. Se realizó disección y resección del tumor en bloque para extirpar la masa tumoral, así como rafia diafragmática y colecistectomía. A los tres meses del primer acto quirúrgico, el paciente volvió a presentar aumento de volumen abdominal, en el que las pruebas de imagen mostraron recidiva tumoral. Se realizó un nuevo procedimiento quirúrgico que reveló un tumor con una cápsula rota y múltiples coágulos. Conclusión: El rápido retorno del paciente tras el inicio de la recidiva, frecuente en estos casos, fue fundamental para reducir los residuos en la segunda cirugía, destacando la importancia de las exploraciones periódicas para el reconocimiento precoz de la recidiva local. En este caso también se realizaron sesiones de radioterapia, con el objetivo de prevenir la recurrencia, sin éxito.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Psoas abscess is a rare pathological entity being retroperitonescopy an unusual therapeutic modality for its resolution. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The objective is to present and describe five patients with a diagnosis of psoas abscess that were resolved by retroperitoneoscopy in our institution and then carried out a non-systematic review of the literature. RESULTS: The mean age was 58.8 years and 80% were male. All patients had back pain and none had therapeutic resolution with conservative treatment. 60% of the patients had a methicillin sensitive Staphyylococus Aureus. In the follow-up with a mean of 10.2 months, no recurrence was observed. CONCLUSIONS: Early diagnosis of psoas abscess is important for its correct resolution. In our small series of patients, retroperitoneoscopy was an effective treatment.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Transosseous biopsy allows sampling of lesions that are difficult to access with conventional techniques. Its use avoids surgeries. Objective: To present a clinical case in which retroperitoneal percutaneous biopsy with trans vertebral approach was used. A brief bibliographic revision of this technique will be made. Case: 60 year old woman with endometrial adenocarcinoma, with 7 months of clinical symptoms characterized by asthenia and non-specific lumbar pain. An intercaval aortic lymphadenopathy was found. Trans vertebral biopsy of the lesion was decided, its location precluded conventional approaches access. Conclusion: This technique must be considered when studying unreacheable lesions by other means and performed by trained professionals.

RESUMEN

Antecedentes: La retroperitonitis es una rara y severa complicación de la apendicitis. Hasta el presente solo unos pocos reportes de casos han sido publicados en la literatura inglesa. Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar una serie consecutiva de 11 casos tratados en nuestra institución. Materiales y Método: Análisis retrospectivo de una base de datos recolectada en forma prospectiva de todos los pacientes admitidos por retroperitonitis de origen apendicular durante el período marzo 2017-septiembre 2020. Se analizarán las variables asociadas con esta complicación y su manejo. Resultados: 11 pacientes de un total de 601 con diagnóstico de apendicitis presentaron una retroperitonitis durante el período analizado (1,83%). El retardo en el diagnóstico fue en promedio de 8 días (rango 3 - 14 días). Todos los pacientes tuvieron un apéndice retrocecal y 81% presentaron un coprolito asociado. 45% fueron manejados inicialmente con abdomen abierto y contenido, y 55% con cierre fascial primario (50% de fracaso). La morbilidad y mortalidad fueron del 81% y 18%, respectivamente Discusión: La localización retrocecal del apéndice, la presencia de un coprolito y la presentación atípica, con demora en el diagnóstico, fueron factores comunes presentes en nuestra experiencia. El manejo con cierre fascial primario fracasó en la mitad de los casos. La morbimortalidad fue elevada. Conclusión: La retroperitonitis es una infrecuente pero severa complicación de la apendicitis, con elevada morbimortalidad.


Background: Retroperitonitis is a rare and life-threatening complication of appendicitis. So far, only a few cases have been described so far in the English literature. Aim: The objetive of this paper is to analyze a consecutive series of 11 patients treated at our institution. Materials and Method: Retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database of all patients admitted for appendicular retroperitonitis during the period March 2017-September 2020. The variables associated with this complication and its management are analyzed. Results: 11 patients from 601 with a diagnosis of appendicitis presented with retroperitonitis during the study period (1.83%). Mean delay in diagnosis was 8 days (range 3-14 days). The location of the appendix was retrocecal in all cases and 81% had an appendicolith associated. 45% were initially managed with open abdomen. A 50% failure rate occurred after primary fascial closure. Morbidity and mortality rates were 81% and 18%, respectively. Discussion: Retrocecal location of the appendix, the presence of an appendicolith and atypical presentation with delayed diagnosis were common factors present in our experience. Primary fascial closure was associated with a 50% failure rate. Morbidity and mortality were high. Conclusion: Retroperitonitis is a rare but severe complication of appendicitis, with high morbidity and mortality rates.

RESUMEN

CASE: The modified direct anterior approach (MDAA) is a recently popular surgical technique for total hip arthroplasty (THA), with well-documented challenges. Characterized as acute hip and back pain, we present the case of a 78-year-old woman who developed an iliopsoas hematoma after an MDAA THA and discuss the management of this incident. CONCLUSIONS: Iliopsoas hematoma after THA poses a unique challenge and should be considered in patients with acute hip and back pain, with loss of strength on the affected limb after an MDAA THA.

RESUMEN

Abstract Takayasu's arteritis is a type of primary systemic vasculitis that affects medium and large arteries, including the aorta and its main branches, as well as the pulmonary and coronary arteries. Although rare in children, it is the third most common vasculitis in the pediatric population, often with delayed diagnosis due to the nonspecific presentation of clinical symptoms in its initial phase. This is a case of a 16-year-old girl with a giant ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm, who needed surgery on an emergency basis. The etiological aspects involved in aneurysms in young patients are also addressed.

RESUMEN

Fetus in fetu (FIF) is a rare congenital anomaly in which a malformed fetus is incorporated within the body of its twin. It was first described in the late 18th century and has an incidence of 1:500,000 live births. In most cases, the diagnosis is made in infants or young adults. To date, the oldest patient reported in the literature was 47 years old. We describe the case of a 65-year-old patient with FIF, now the oldest reported in the literature. Our patient meets all the diagnostic criteria for FIF, including the presence of a limb in advanced formation inside the lesion. The treatment was surgical excision. FIF should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abdominal masses, typically recognized in infancy. Symptoms arise from mass effects. Surgical resection should be performed due to the potential for malignant transformation.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To report experience in a hospital in Mexico regarding oncological results in overall survival (OS) and specific cancer survival (SCS), the presence of recurrence in the management of residual masses after chemotherapy with lymphadenectomy retroperitoneal for 15 years. METHOD: Between 2004 and 2019, a retrospective study was carried out in a single centre with patients with a germ cell tumor diagnosis who have received first or second line of chemotherapy and who present retroperitoneal residual mass were included have performed RPLND. Sociodemographic characteristics were analyzed, overall and histological survival. RESULTS: 346 patients had inclusion criteria, mean age was 27.6 years, the most affected testis was the left, the most frequent testicular histology was mixed germline. The most frequent retroperitoneal location was paraortic, the most frequent type of RPLND was standard, the most frequent histology was necrosis. Recurrence occurred in 24.2%, mean of 17.1 months, when analyzing individual factors, the most significant was the type of RPLND. The clinical stage, histology of the retroperitoneal tumor and type of RPLND influence mortality. Global follow up of 141 months, OS was 85.5% and SCS was 86.1%, mean of 139.9 months and 141 months respectively. CONCLUSIONS: RPLND is effective in survival and recurrence in advanced disease in patients who present postchemotherapy retroperitoneal tumor and although there is a clear benefit in the resection of retroperitoneal tumors in teratoma, there are conditioning factors that must be analyzed individually.


OBJETIVO: Reportar nuestra experiencia en supervivencia y recurrencia en el manejo de masas residuales posquimioterapia con linfadenectomía retroperitoneal durante 15 años. MÉTODO: Estudio retrospectivo de 2004 a 2019. Se incluyeron pacientes con diagnóstico de tumor de células germinales que habían recibido quimioterapia y presentaron una masa residual retroperitoneal en un solo centro y se les realizó linfadenectomía retroperitoneal. Se analizaron las características sociodemográficas, de supervivencia global e histológicas. RESULTADOS: Cumplían los criterios de inclusión 346 pacientes, con una media de edad de 27.6 años. El testículo más afectado fue el izquierdo, y la histología testicular más frecuente fue germinal mixto. La localización retroperitoneal más frecuente fue paraaórtica, el tipo de linfadenectomía más frecuente fue la estándar y la histología más frecuente fue la necrosis. Se presentó recurrencia en el 24.2% de los pacientes, en una media de 17.1 meses; al analizar los factores individuales, el más significativo fue el tipo de linfadenectomía. El estadio clínico, la histología del tumor retroperitoneal y el tipo de linfadenectomía influyen en la mortalidad. El seguimiento global fue de 141 meses, la supervivencia global fue del 85.5% y la supervivencia específica del cáncer fue del 86.1%, con media de 139.9 y 141 meses, respectivamente. CONCLUSIONES: La linfadenectomía retroperitoneal es efectiva en cuanto a supervivencia y recurrencia en la enfermedad avanzada en pacientes que presentan tumor retroperitoneal posquimioterapia, y aunque existe un claro beneficio en la resección de los tumores retroperitoneales en teratoma, existen factores condicionantes que deben ser analizados de manera individual.

RESUMEN

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new technique of hydrodissection for peritoneal structures displacement during preoperative localization markers placement. We retrospectively reviewed two cases of percutaneous fiducial marker placement prior rescue retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy. In both cases pressurized 5% dextrose in water (D5W) was used to hydrodissect the peritoneal space and securely reach the lymph nodes. Two patients were submitted to water jet technique for transperitoneal trespassing to reach the retroperitoneum. The volume of fluid used to navigate was 125-200 mL and the mean time to cross the peritoneum was 6 min 47 s (ranging from 3″26' to 10″24'). In conclusion, Bowel and small vessels displacement using pressurized D5W is a safe method to reach retroperitoneal space during percutaneous procedures.

RESUMEN

Anterior cage migration is the most infrequent and dangerous complication seen in posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) procedures. We report the case of a 74-year-old woman who underwent PLIF at the L5-S1 level. During the surgery, one of the PLIF-cages dislodged anteriorly into the abdominal cavity without vascular injury. An anterior retroperitoneal approach to remove the cage and complete the fusion was made. The patient was discharged 2 weeks later with encouraging clinical results. In a patient hemodynamically stable, removing the cage by a vascular surgeon, and complete the Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion could be a feasible option at L5-S1.


La migración anterior del implante para fusión lumbar es la complicación más infrecuente y peligrosa asociada a la fusión intersomática posterior (PLIF). Reportamos el caso de un paciente femenino de 74 años, operada de PLIF en L5-S1. Durante la cirugía, una de las cajas usadas migró a la cavidad abdominal, sin ocasionar lesión vascular. Para remover el implante y completar la fusión lumbar un abordaje retroperitoneal anterior fue realizado. La paciente fue egresada 2 semanas después con éxito. En un paciente hemodinamicamente estable, este abordaje puede ser una opción para revertir la complicación y completar la fusión lumbar vía anterior.
