Journal of Clinical and Medical Case Studies - Lupine publishers


It is known that overweight / obesity is a factor of risk demonstrated for a multitude of diseases metabolic, cardiovascular, visceral and osteoarticular. In addition, there is growing literature evidence that relates obesity with an acceleration of the process of lumbar disc degeneration and this with the presence of chronic low back pain. Currently, obesity is defined based on the BMI, which can be calculated by means of a simple formula that relates the weight of the individual in kilograms with its height in meters raised to square (BMI = Kg /m2) . Also, the interventions that are carried out in overweight/ obese patients present difficulties specific to the surgical technique itself, in general, because of the need for broader approaches, for the greater surgical time employed and a greater blood loss or worse healing of the wounds. Although obesity is not considered, in principle, an absolute contraindication for lumbar spine surgery, its presence does imply to assume a higher rate of perioperative complications compared to the general population.
