Abstract

Postoperative spondylodiscitis (POS) occurs most often after disc surgery and is regarded as a serious and significant clinical problem. There are no hematologic, biochemical, or imaging findings that are unequivocally diagnostic of this process. The diagnosis of POS must be considered after any invasive procedure performed on the spine with a history of worsening back pain in the absence of constitutional symptoms. In this case report, a patient who had spondylodiscitis and bilateral polyradiculopathy after lumbar disc sugery was presented.

Özet

Postoperatif spondilodiskit (POS), sıklıkla disk cerrahisi sonrası gelişen, gözönünde bulundurulması gereken ciddi ve önemli bir klinik problemdir. Bu süreçte tanı koymada herhangi bir spesifik hematolojik, biyokimyasal veya görüntüleme bulgusu yoktur. İnvaziv spinal cerrahi girişim uygulanan hastalarda, konstitüsyonel semptomlar olmaksızın bel ağrısı yakınmasının şiddetlenmesi durumunda, POS göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Bu olgu takdiminde, lomber disk cerrahisi sonrası spondilodiskit ve bilateral poliradikülopati gelişen bir hasta sunulmuştur.
