This intraoperative complication has rarely been reported for an intraspinal or paraspinal location. Here, we present a patient in whom a retained surgical sponge between the paraspinal muscles was encountered 3 years after lumbar surgery, and discuss the radiological and pathological appearance and differential diagnosis.en10.1080/02688690701367701info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessforeign bodygossypibomaretained surgical spongetextilomaA retained surgical sponge (gossypiboma) mimicking a paraspinal abscessArticle213307308WOS:000248146700017Q3Q4
