Lingual Abscess after Posterior Fossa Surgery: An Unusual Complication of the Concorde Position.
Asian Journal of Neurosurgery 2023 December
Posterior fossa tumors are one of the most common tumors occurring in children. These tumors are often operated in the Concorde or prone position. Venous congestion can occur due to neck flexion during the positioning causing macroglossia. We report a case of a lingual abscess in a child after surgery in the Concorde position. There was no preoperative evidence of any lingual and dental complaints or injury during intubation. We hypothesize that the lingual abscess in the immediate postoperative period was secondary to venous stasis during the positioning for surgery.
