Iatrogenic Spinal Subdural Extra-Arachnoid Hygroma Following Uncomplicated Lumbar Decompression
Intradural spinal arachnoid cysts (ISACs) have been reported in the current literature as either an idiopathic disease or exceedingly rare sequelae after lumbar puncture, spinal trauma, or meningitis. Other studies have more appropriately termed the iatrogenic pathology as a spinal subdural extra-arachnoid hygroma (SSEH), as there is not often a clear cyst wall as in a true arachnoid cyst. Howe...
متن کاملComputed tomography and myelography of the postoperative lumbar spine.
Postoperative myelographic changes in the thecal sac, epidural tissues, and bony canal, as well as nerve roots, may be difficult to interpret. A series of 32 postoperative patients, all of whom had a metrizamide myelogram and subsequent lumbar computed tomogram, was reviewed to examine the ability of computed tomography to recognize abnormalities when the myelogram is equivocal or uninterpretab...
متن کاملIdiopathic epidural lipomatosis of the lumbar spine
A 50-year-old male without medical history presented with progressive development of motor weakness in his lower extremities and urinary leakage. For one year, he had experienced severe lower back pain associated to bilateral radicular claudication of the lower limbs. Physical examination revealed stepping with bilateral foot dorsiflexor weakness (2/5). Deep-tendon reflexes were abolished in bo...
متن کاملComparative study of degenerative lumbar disc lesions between conventional lumbar myelography and CT myelographic evaluation
Introduction: The syndrome of low backache with or without neurological deficit is a common diagnostic problem, an orthopedic surgeon faces in daily practice. Such patients initially are treated conservatively with analgesics, short wave diathermy, tractions and exercises. Such patients attend the OPD with a variety of presentations and localization of lesion is too difficult at times. 1,2 Such...
متن کاملCT myelography of subarachnoid leukemic infiltration of the lumbar thecal sac and lumbar nerve roots.
Spinal nerve root or cauda equina compression in patients with leukemia is often secondary to extradural chloroma [1]. We present the CT myelographic findings of an intradural mass and lumbar nerve root enlargement secondary to leukemic infiltration of the lumbar subarachnoid space and nerve roots. This form of leukemic involvement of the nervous system has not previously been demonstrated with...
