ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Congenital complex spinal lipomas (CSL) are challenging lesions to treat. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks are feared complications due to the risk of infection, and subsequent scarring that may promote retethering. Much has been written in the literature on the surgical technique of CSL resection with less emphasis placed on the prevention and management of CSF leak.

METHOD: The authors describe the nuances in the prevention and management of CSF leaks in the context of CSL, including the operative approach, resection, closure and recommended postoperative care.

CONCLUSION: CSF leaks are complications that can be minimized with deliberate steps and meticulous surgical technique.
