Resumen
GONZALEZ VIESCAS, Juan Manuel et al. Retiro de aguja intradural en la columna toracolumbar. Reporte de un caso. Rev. Asoc. Argent. Ortop. Traumatol. [online]. 2021, vol.86, n.3, pp.392-397. ISSN 1852-7434. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.15417/issn.1852-7434.2021.86.3.1146.
The presence of foreign elements within the spinal canal is rare and there is no clear consensus regarding its treatment. The publications on intracanal firearm projectile fragments recommend exeresis of the fragments due to the possibility of migration, especially when they are in an area close to the medullary cone. The same procedure should be applied to a needle inside the spinal canal. We present a patient with disabling radicular pain caused by a needle fragment within the spinal canal after cesarean section.
