AbstractInjury to the lumbar artery during percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) is a very severe complication and only rarely reported. We present a 64-year-old patient with an injury to the right third lumbar artery during PELD which was successfully treated with intraoperative angiography and coil embolization. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the use of intraoperative angiography and coil embolization to treat a lumbar artery that had been lacerated during PELD.Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Inc.
