Visual impairment after laparoscopic donor nephrectomy
Abstract
Loss of vision after surgery is rare and has never been reported after a laparoscopic procedure. We describe a case of visual deficits secondary to posterior ischemic optic neuropathy after a laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. The potential etiologies of postoperative visual loss are reviewed, and recommendations for avoiding this complication are discussed.
