Abstract EN

The iliac crest is a popular source for autogenous bone harvesting, but the process is rife with complications.

This case report presents a patient that experienced incisional lumbar herniation of her kidney following an iliac crest bone harvesting procedure.

A discussion is included on the underappreciated complications of this procedure and recommendations for improving outcomes with more thorough evaluation and documentation.
