Lumbar spinal canal MRI diameter is smaller in herniated disc cauda equina syndrome patients
INTRODUCTION Correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical features in cauda equina syndrome (CES) is unknown; nor is known whether there are differences in MRI spinal canal size between lumbar herniated disc patients with CES versus lumbar herniated discs patients without CES, operated for sciatica. The aims of this study are 1) evaluating the association of MRI features wi...
متن کامل"Intermittent ischaemia" of the cauda equina due to stenosis of the lumbar canal.
'Intermittent claudication' of the spinal cord was first described by Dejerine in 1911. In 1961, Blau and Logue described an unsual syndrome resulting from central protrusion of a lumbar intervertebral disc which gave rise to symptoms suggesting 'intermittent claudication of the cauda equina'. Since this report, a further series of cases has been described by Evans (1964). We have recently obse...
متن کاملSpinal stenosis, a cause of cauda equina compression.
In 1934 Mixter and Barr described the syndrome of the ruptured intervertebral disc in the lumbar region. Since then the herniated intervertebral disc has been considered to be the dominant cause of low back pain and sciatica. In 1953 Schlesinger and Taveras pointed out that in the presence of a narrow spinal canal patients with herniated intervertebral discs may present an atypical picture of m...
متن کاملCauda Equina Syndrome Following Decompression for Spinal Stenosis
Cauda equina syndrome following decompression for spinal stenosis appears to occur more commonly than the literature suggests. A large series of spinal stenosis decompressions was reviewed. Based on these findings, a theory is put forth as to the cause of this complication. One hundred seventy-five cases of decompression for spinal stenosis done over a 2.5-year period were reviewed. Follow-up w...
متن کاملCauda Equina Conduction Time Determined by F-Waves in Normal Subjects and Patients With Neurogenic Intermittent Claudication Caused by Lumbar Spinal Stenosis.
PURPOSE Lumbar spinal stenosis typically presents with neurogenic intermittent claudication. The aim of this study was to investigate cauda equina conduction time (CECT) in patients with neurogenic intermittent claudication caused by lumbar spinal stenosis and its relationship with age and body height in normal subjects. METHODS The study included 172 normal subjects (group C) (mean age 44.1 ...
