We present the case of a 32-year-old woman with a diagnosis of lumbar root syndrome and spondylolisthesis, which is why she underwent surgery. Anterior discectomy and intersomatic box placement plus posterior fixation were performed with percutaneous transpedicular screws in L5-S1. At 24 hours of the procedure, the patient presents sustained hypotension, adding sudden and intense chest pain with neck irradiation, dyspnea, and diaphoresis, as well as electrocardiographic abnormalities and elevation of cardiac enzymes suggestive of an acute coronary syndrome, subsequently evidence of basal hypokinesis in the echocardiogram. After providing hemodynamic support and analgesic management, the symptoms were resolved, and the electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac enzymes were normalized, allowing an adequate postoperative evolution.
