| Summary: | The presented rare clinical case of the development of arteriomesenteric compression of the duodenum is described with the aim of
informing a wide audience of specialists (orthopedic trauma surgeons, vertebrologists, neurosurgeons, surgeons, neurologists and
pediatricians) about a rare complication of surgical correction of typical adolescent idiopathic scoliosis – intestinal obstruction due
to compression of the lower horizontal part of the duodenum by the superior mesenteric artery. Publications answering two posed
questions were analyzed: is there a correlation between surgical correction of scoliosis and development of abdominal pathology
in a patient in the immediate postoperative period, and should the instrumentation be completely or partially removed at the level
of the thoracolumbar junction in the case of formation of duodenal arteriomesenteric compression in a patient operated on the
spine? Abdominal visceral complications are extremely rare and represented by a very few publications even in modern electronic
databases of medical information, therefore we consider it important to bring a case from our practice to the attention of readers. |
