Any bone marrow or soft-tissue changes at MRIs of the LSR early after the insertion of a synthetic mesh, does not constitute an expected postoperative finding and should raise the suspicion of an ongoing inflammatory or infectious spinal process (spondylodiscitis). Additionally, LSCP seems to be a safe surgical approach for women with preexisting degenerative disease of the LSR.
