Surgical hypothermia and its postoperative challenges: A case report
This case highlights the multifaceted impact of intraoperative hypothermia, particularly its role in contributing to uncommon yet severe complications. It reinforces the importance of close temperature monitoring and early intervention for bleeding and resultant organ compression during the postoperative period, especially following major surgery. Further studies are needed to refine preventive strategies for intraoperative hypothermia and to enhance understanding of the mechanisms underlying these rare complications.
