Case of successful treatment of spinal infection in a patient with high comorbidity and septic manifestations

https://doi.org/10.34215/1609-1175-2024-1-82-87

Abstract

The study presents a clinical case of complex treatment of a patient with high comorbidity (Charlson comorbidity index = 6 points) who had severe sepsis (SOFA score = 8 points) with multiple foci of pyogenic infection (spinal epiduritis, paravertebral and subdural abscesses, purulent meningitis, bilateral lower lobe pneumonia). The syndrome-based approach with the use of minimally invasive approaches in the early stages (no later than 12 hours from the onset of clinical manifestations of the disease) ensured a favorable outcome. Based on the results of surgical treatment, a conclusion was made about the tactics of surgical treatment in patients with spinal infection against the background of sepsis.
