Abstract

Objective: Many complications but cortical blindness after percutaneous vertebroplasty has been rarely reported. Here, we describe a case who developed cortical blindness after percutaneous vertebroplasty. We also reviewed the literature to find the possible causes of this complication and its treatment.

Methods: Case report and literature review.

Results: A 71-year-old woman experienced cortical blindness after percutaneous vertebroplast. She developed dizziness, nausea, sweating, blood pressure changes, and vision loss during the procedure. MRI confirmed bilateral cerebral infarctions. The patient recovered with conservative treatment.

Conclusions: Percutaneous vertebroplasty, though helpful, carries a rare risk of cortical blindness. Surgeon awareness is crucial for informing patients of this potential complication.

经皮椎体成形术后的皮质盲：病例报告和文献综述。

目的：经皮椎体成形术的并发症很多，但皮质盲症却鲜有报道。在此，我们描述了一例经皮椎体成形术后出现皮质盲的病例。我们还回顾了相关文献，以找出这种并发症的可能原因及其治疗方法：方法：病例报告和文献综述：结果：一名 71 岁的女性在经皮椎体成形术后出现皮质盲。她在手术过程中出现头晕、恶心、出汗、血压变化和视力下降。磁共振成像证实双侧脑梗塞。患者经保守治疗后康复：结论：经皮椎体成形术虽然有帮助，但存在皮质失明的罕见风险。外科医生的认识对于告知患者这一潜在并发症至关重要。

期刊介绍： Neurocase is a rapid response journal of case studies and innovative group studies in neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and behavioral neurology that speak to the neural basis of cognition. Four types of manuscript are considered for publication: single case investigations that bear directly on issues of relevance to theoretical issues or brain-behavior relationships; group studies of subjects with brain dysfunction that address issues relevant to the understanding of human cognition; reviews of important topics in the domains of neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and behavioral neurology; and brief reports (up to 2500 words) that replicate previous reports dealing with issues of considerable significance. Of particular interest are investigations that include precise anatomical localization of lesions or neural activity via imaging or other techniques, as well as studies of patients with neurodegenerative diseases, since these diseases are becoming more common as our population ages. Topic reviews are included in most issues.
