Surgery was conducted on the patient by performing a dorso-lumbar spinal arthrodesis (T6-L5) by means of the insertion of two longitudinal rods and a number of pedicle-expander screws at different vertebral levels. Following the orthopedic surgery, the patient presented paraparesis of the lower limbs and anemia that required transfusion. In the immediate postoperative period, a noncontrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan was obtained to assess the medullary canal. A deviation of the left screw placed at T6 was detected; this screw projected outward from the vertebral cortex, protruding into the descending thoracic aorta. A contrast-enhanced CT scan showed that the screw had been malpositioned, and the image was highly suggestive of a perforation of the aortic wall, despite a lack of evidence of a peri-aortic hematoma, extravasation of contrast medium, or pleural effusion. The patient remained hemodynamically stable, and the decision was to perform an endovascular repair electively within 24 hours. application/pdf eng Society of Vascular Surgery info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported Cirugía operatoria Mádula espinal - Lesiones y heridas Endovascular treatment of thoracic aorta injury after spinal column surgery info:eu-repo/semantics/article SI
