Postoperative adverse events secondary to iatrogenic vascular injury during anterior lumbar spinal surgery

The Impact of ChatGPT in Medical Education, Research, and Spine Care

“…Groot et al 24 described the potential for ChatGPT to be used for data collection. The authors suggested using ChatGPT for monitoring and analyzing chart data for over 1000 patients for a study investigating the risk of VTE after vascular injury in anterior lumbar interbody fusion procedures.…”

Vascular Injury in Elective Anterior Surgery of the Lumbar Spine: A Narrative Review

“…However, it is quite highlighted in the current literature that in cases of anterior spinal surgery that are accompanied by predisposing risk factors such as the above, detailed preoperative planning is essential in order to diminish any possibility of fatal vascular damage. Also, it is quite clear in recent studies, that the presence of vascular injuries and postoperative venous thrombosis leads to increased transfusion rates, morbidity, and in-hospital mortality, as highlighted by Goot et al, where the most cases of injury signed in the left common iliac vein (LCIV) [ 19 - 20 ]. On the other hand, Chiriano et al reported that by anterior retroperitoneal access to the lumbar spine (ARES), the frequency of vascular injury in cases involving the disc of L4-L5 was higher in comparison with the other levels while CIV laceration was associated with higher rates of postoperative deep vein thrombosis [ 21 ].…”
