AbstractSurgical treatment of the lumbar spine is a standard procedure in orthopedic and neurosurgery. After endoscopic discectomy an otherwise healthy patient developed massive dyspnea in combination with severe abdominal pain. Sonography revealed a large volume of free fluid in the abdominal cavity which proved to be surgical irrigation solution after computed tomography (CT) guided puncture. After insertion of a drainage channel fluid could be removed and the patient was transferred to a peripheral ward after a 24 h monitoring period. This review reports on the complications and anesthetic characteristics of percutaneous spinal interventions and presents differential diagnoses of postoperative dyspnea.
