: Yes. This seems to be the meaning. Doctors use this tributaria thing a lot, but it is not in RAE's dictionary.

Discussion
The patient was admitted to casualty after swallowing HCl, only imaging and blood tests are mentioned (nothing about surgery). I was thinking in this context it meant "impossibilty of surgical repair"?
