Hypovolemic Shock Caused by Massive Lumbar Artery Bleeding after Intradiscal Electrothermal Therapy

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Several reports of lumbar artery injuries have been published; however, cases of hypovolemic shock associated with relatively safe procedures like intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET) and recurrent bleeding through the communicating artery are rare.The authors present a case of a 71-year-old male who developed a retroperitoneal hemorrhage caused by an L4 lumbar artery injury during IDET, leading to hypovolemic shock.The patient was treated with two embolization procedures.
