Sequela of spinal fracture surgery

Spinal fracture sequela mainly has the following aspects: the first is easy to show hematoma formation after surgery, which is related to the lack of strict hemostasis in our operation, so intraoperative hemostasis should be sufficient; Another complication that is also very terrible is the wound infection after surgery. Therefore, we should closely observe the changes of the incision after surgery to see if there is obvious bleeding or if there are some inflammatory manifestations of redness, swelling, heat and pain. If there is, we should further debridement of the incision, even strengthen the application of antibiotics, and then clarify the cause of infection to prevent further deterioration. Second, there is a spinal deformity caused by poor reduction, resulting in spinal deformity union. If the deformity union causes further hyperplasia of the vertebral body, it may compress the nerve or spinal cord, causing some dysfunction of the limbs, and even causing paralysis in serious cases. In short, once complications are shown after surgery, we must deal with them in time to prevent the occurrence of spinal deformity and prevent some serious complications.
