Nerve Compression Syndromes
Mechanical compression of nerves or nerve roots from internal or external causes. These may result in a conduction block to nerve impulses (due to MYELIN SHEATH dysfunction) or axonal loss. The nerve and nerve sheath injuries may be caused by ISCHEMIA; INFLAMMATION; or a direct mechanical effect.
Spinal Cord Neoplasms
Benign and malignant neoplasms which occur within the substance of the spinal cord (intramedullary neoplasms) or in the space between the dura and spinal cord (intradural extramedullary neoplasms). The majority of intramedullary spinal tumors are primary CNS neoplasms including ASTROCYTOMA; EPENDYMOMA; and LIPOMA. Intramedullary neoplasms are often associated with SYRINGOMYELIA. The most frequent histologic types of intradural-extramedullary tumors are MENINGIOMA and NEUROFIBROMA.
Laminectomy
A surgical procedure that entails removing all (laminectomy) or part (laminotomy) of selected vertebral lamina to relieve pressure on the SPINAL CORD and/or SPINAL NERVE ROOTS. Vertebral lamina is the thin flattened posterior wall of vertebral arch that forms the vertebral foramen through which pass the spinal cord and nerve roots.
Spinal Cord Compression
Acute and chronic conditions characterized by external mechanical compression of the SPINAL CORD due to extramedullary neoplasm; EPIDURAL ABSCESS; SPINAL FRACTURES; bony deformities of the vertebral bodies; and other conditions.

Spinal Nerve Roots
Paired bundles of NERVE FIBERS entering and leaving the SPINAL CORD at each segment. The dorsal and ventral nerve roots join to form the mixed segmental spinal nerves. The dorsal roots are generally afferent, formed by the central projections of the spinal (dorsal root) ganglia sensory cells, and the ventral roots are efferent, comprising the axons of spinal motor and PREGANGLIONIC AUTONOMIC FIBERS.
Ependymoma

It may arise from any level of the ventricular system or central canal of the spinal cord. Intracranial ependymomas most frequently originate in the FOURTH VENTRICLE and histologically are densely cellular tumors which may contain ependymal tubules and perivascular pseudorosettes. Spinal ependymomas are usually benign papillary or myxopapillary tumors.

Spinal Diseases
Lumbosacral Region
Region of the back including the LUMBAR VERTEBRAE, SACRUM, and nearby structures.
Neurilemmoma
A neoplasm that arises from SCHWANN CELLS of the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic nerves. Clinically, these tumors may present as a cranial neuropathy, abdominal or soft tissue mass, intracranial lesion, or with spinal cord compression. Histologically, these tumors are encapsulated, highly vascular, and composed of a homogenous pattern of biphasic fusiform-shaped cells that may have a palisaded appearance. (From DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, pp964-5)
Dura Mater
The outermost of the three MENINGES, a fibrous membrane of connective tissue that covers the brain and the spinal cord.

Non-neoplastic tumor-like lesions at joints, developed from the SYNOVIAL MEMBRANE of a joint through the JOINT CAPSULE into the periarticular tissues. They are filled with SYNOVIAL FLUID with a smooth and translucent appearance. A synovial cyst can develop from any joint, but most commonly at the back of the knee, where it is known as POPLITEAL CYST.
Paraganglioma, Extra-Adrenal
A relatively rare, usually benign neoplasm originating in the chemoreceptor tissue of the CAROTID BODY; GLOMUS JUGULARE; GLOMUS TYMPANICUM; AORTIC BODIES; and the female genital tract. It consists histologically of rounded or ovoid hyperchromatic cells that tend to be grouped in an alveolus-like pattern within a scant to moderate amount of fibrous stroma and a few large thin-walled vascular channels. (From Stedman, 27th ed)
Arachnoiditis
Acute or chronic inflammation of the arachnoid membrane of the meninges most often involving the spinal cord or base of the brain. This term generally refers to a persistent inflammatory process characterized by thickening of the ARACHNOID membrane and dural adhesions. Associated conditions include prior surgery, infections, trauma, SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE, and chemical irritation. Clinical features vary with the site of inflammation, but include cranial neuropathies, radiculopathies, and myelopathies. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1997, Ch48, p25)
Hemangioblastoma
A benign tumor of the nervous system that may occur sporadically or in association with VON HIPPEL-LINDAU DISEASE. It accounts for approximately 2% of intracranial tumors, arising most frequently in the cerebellar hemispheres and vermis. Histologically, the tumors are composed of multiple capillary and sinusoidal channels lined with endothelial cells and clusters of lipid-laden pseudoxanthoma cells. Usually solitary, these tumors can be multiple and may also occur in the brain stem, spinal cord, retina, and supratentorial compartment. Cerebellar hemangioblastomas usually present in the third decade with INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION, and ataxia. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, pp2071-2)

A behavior disorder originating in childhood in which the essential features are signs of developmentally inappropriate inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. Although most individuals have symptoms of both inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity, one or the other pattern may be predominant. The disorder is more frequent in males than females. Onset is in childhood. Symptoms often attenuate during late adolescence although a minority experience the full complement of symptoms into mid-adulthood. (From DSM-V)
Internet

Cauda equina syndrome in ankylosing spondylitis: a report of six cases. (1/196)

Six patients with ankylosing spondylitis and features of a cauda equina syndrome are described. The myelographic findings are discussed in relation to the pathogenesis of the disorder and its natural history. Present experience suggests that the cauda equina syndrome is a more common complication of ankylosing spondylitis than is usually thought.  (+info)

MR imaging of Dejerine-Sottas disease. (2/196)

We report the MR findings in two patients with clinically and histologically proved Dejerine-Sottas disease. One patient had spinal involvement with multiple thickened and clumped nerve roots of the cauda equina; the second had multiple enlarged and enhancing cranial nerves. Although these findings are not specific for Dejerine-Sottas disease, they are suggestive of the diagnosis, which is further corroborated with history and confirmed with sural nerve biopsy and laboratory studies.  (+info)

Lumbar spinal subdural hematoma following craniotomy--case report. (3/196)

A 52-year-old female complained of lumbago and weakness in the lower extremities 6 days after craniotomy for clipping an aneurysm. Neurological examination revealed symptoms consistent with lumbosacral cauda equina compression. The symptoms affecting the lower extremities spontaneously disappeared within 3 days. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging 10 days after the operation demonstrated a lumbar spinal subdural hematoma (SSH). She had no risk factor for bleeding at this site, the symptoms appeared after she began to walk, and MR imaging suggested the SSH was subacute. Therefore, the SSH was probably due to downward movement of blood from the cranial subdural space under the influence of gravity. SSH as a complication of cranial surgery is rare, but should be considered if a patient develops symptoms consistent with a lumbar SSH after craniotomy.  (+info)

Sclerosing spinal pachymeningitis. A complication of intrathecal administration of Depo-Medrol for multiple sclerosis. (4/196)

Reported complications of intrathecal steroid therapy include aseptic meningitis, infectious meningitis, and arachnoiditis. We report a case of sclerosing spinal pachymeningitis complicating the attempted intrathecal administration of Depo-Medrol for multiple sclerosis. The lesion is characterised by concentric laminar proliferation of neomembranes within the subdural space of the entire spinal cord and cauda equina, resulting from repeated episodes of injury and repair to the spinal dura mater by Depo-Medrol. There is clinical and laboratory evidence that Depo-Medrol produces meningeal irritation and that the vehicle is the necrotising fraction.  (+info)

Intravascular lymphomatosis presenting as an ascending cauda equina: conus medullaris syndrome: remission after biweekly CHOP therapy. (5/196)

A 63 year old man developed dysaesthesia in the legs followed by a subacute ascending flaccid paraparesis with sacral sensory and autonomic involvement. Intravascular lymphomatosis (IVL) was favoured by the presence of low grade fever and raised serum C reactive protein, CSF pleocytosis, raised lymphoma markers (serum LDH, soluble IL-2 receptor), and steroid responsiveness. Only muscle, among several organ biopsies, confirmed IVL. A cytogenetic study of the bone marrow showed chromosome 6 monosomy, as previously reported. The monosomy of chromosome 19, which bears the intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1, newly found in this case, may be related to the unique tumour embolisation of IVL. The CHOP regimen (six courses in 12 weeks) using granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) led to gradual resolution of myeloradiculopathy and laboratory supported remission lasting for more than 13 months. The biweekly CHOP with G-CSF support may be a choice of chemotherapy in averting rapidly fatal IVL.  (+info)

Nutritional supply to the cauda equina in lumbar adhesive arachnoiditis in rats. (6/196)

Laminectomy-induced cauda equina adhesion has been proved by rat experiments and postoperative serial MRI in humans. A degenerative change of the cauda equina has been proved when cauda equina adhesion has been prolonged. Since it has not been reported how the nutritional supply is changed in such a condition, we evaluated the glucose supply to the adhered cauda equina in rats. Wistar rats were divided into the following three groups: the control group which received no operation, the laminectomy group which underwent L5-L6 laminectomy only, and the koalin group which received 5 mg of kaolin on the dorsal extradural space following L5-L6 laminectomy. Based on 3H-methyl-glucose uptake study, we analyzed (1) glucose transport from the intraneural vessels to the nerve tissue, and (2) glucose transport from the cerebrospinal fluid to the nerve tissue. We evaluated the relation between the severity of cauda equina adhesion and 3H uptake into the cauda equina. Cauda equina adhesion was observed in 2 of 12 rats in the control group, in 3 of 12 rats in the laminectomy group, and in 18 of 20 rats in the kaolin group. In the 3H-methyl-glucose uptake study, at 12 weeks the glucose transport to the cauda equina from the vessels increased by 44%, and that from the cerebrospinal fluid decreased by 64% in the kaolin group compared with the control group. In the condition of complete cauda equina adhesion, the glucose transport to the cauda equina from the vessels increased by 53% and that from the cerebrospinal fluid remarkably decreased by 72% compared with the normal cauda equina. Considering the greater nutritional importance of the cerebrospinal fluid in the cauda equina, it is most likely that the impairment of nutritional supply to adhered cauda equina may lead to eventual neural degeneration.  (+info)

Predictors of outcome in cauda equina syndrome. (7/196)

This retrospective review examined the cause, level of pathology, onset of symptoms, time taken to treatment, and outcome of 19 patients with cauda equina syndrome (CES). The minimum time to follow up was 22 months. Logistical regression analysis was used to determine how these factors influenced the eventual outcome. Out of 19 patients, 14 had satisfactory recovery at 2 years post-decompression; 5 patients were left with some residual dysfunction. The mean time to decompression in the group with a satisfactory outcome was 14 h (range 6-24 h) whilst that of the group with the poor outcome was 30 h (range 20-72 h). There was a clear correlation between delayed decompression and a poor outcome (P = 0.023). Saddle hypoaesthesia was evident in all patients. In addition complete perineal anaesthesia was evident in 7/19 patients, 5 of whom developed a poor outcome. Bladder dysfunction was observed in 19/19 patients, with 12/19 regarded as having significant impairment. Of the five patients identified as having a poor overall outcome, all five presented with a significant sphincter disturbance and 4/5 were left with residual sphincter dysfunction. There was a clear correlation between the presence of complete perineal anaesthesia and significant sphincter dysfunction as both univariate and multivariate predictors of a poor overall outcome. The association between a slower onset of CES and a more favourable outcome did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.052). No correlation could be found between initial motor function loss, bilateral sciatica, level or cause of injury as predictors of a poor outcome (P>0.05). CES can be diagnosed early by judicious physical examination, with particular attention to perineal sensation and a history of urinary dysfunction. The most important factors identified in this series as predictors of a favourable outcome in CES were early diagnosis and early decompression.  (+info)

The appearance on MRI of vertebrae in acute compression of the spinal cord due to metastases. (8/196)

We studied MR images of the spine in a consecutive series of 100 patients with acute compression of the spinal cord due to metastases. All patients had documented neurological deficit and histologically proven carcinoma. MRI was used to localise bony metastatic involvement and soft-tissue impingement of the cord. A systematic method of documenting metastatic involvement is described. A total of 43 patients had compression at multiple levels; 160 vertebral levels were studied. In 120 vertebrae (75%), anterior, lateral and posterior bony elements were involved. Soft-tissue impingement of the spinal cord often involved more than one quadrant of its circumference. In 69 vertebrae (43%) there was concomitant anterior and posterior compression. Isolated involvement of a vertebral body was observed in only six vertebrae (3.8%). We have shown that in most cases of acute compression of the spinal cord due to metastases there is coexisting involvement of both anterior and posterior structures.  (+info)

Sexual function in men with cauda equina lesions: a clinical and electromyographic study | Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery &...Sexual function in men with cauda equina lesions: a clinical and electromyographic study | Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery &...
The cauda equina conveys sensory fibres from the sacral dermatomes, motor nerve fibres innervating lower sacral myotome skeletal muscles, and sacral parasympathetic fibres.11 Thus in patients with cauda equina lesions the finding of pronounced sexual dysfunction, perineal sensory deficit, and EMG abnormalities is not unexpected.11. Cell bodies of motor and sacral parasympathetic neurones reside within the Onuf and intermediolateral nuclei of the conus medullaris, respectively, and these also receive input from afferent sacral nerve fibres. The effects of lesions to the cauda equina and the conus medullaris are, as a result, similar and it is difficult to distinguish between them clinically. In particular, on multiple linear regression analysis our patients with spinal fractures-most of whom had L1 fractures-probably had at least some involvement of the conus medullaris (with or without root damage). We consider conus medullaris lesions improbable in patients with disc herniations, which in all ...

Claire Thornber, founder of CESA was also there. She runs the support services and travels around the country trying to bring hope and support to all those suffering with CES. It is so great to have the founder on hand to pick her brains about Cauda Equina. She is the most knowledgeable person I know about our condition. When you attend a meeting make sure you have a conversation with her because I know from personal experience how valuable her help can be. She is so lovely and doesnt get embarrassed talking about anything from bladders to sexual dysfunction. Shes great.. In summation, I believe that anyone who has suffered Cauda Equina would benefit from coming to meetings. The main point of the support group is for people with CES to see they are not alone. I suggest that you join the CES map (if you havent already) and get in touch with those in your area, who also have Cauda Equina and try to come to a meeting together..

Filum terminale - WikipediaFilum terminale - Wikipedia
The most inferior of the spinal nerves, the coccygeal nerve leaves the spinal cord at the level of the conus medullaris, superior to the filum terminale. However, adhering to the outer surface of the filum terminale are a few strands of nerve fibres which probably represent rudimentary second and third coccygeal nerves.[1] Furthermore, the central canal of the spinal cord extends 5 to 6 cm beyond the conus medullaris, downward into the filum terminale. ...

Cauda equina - wikidocCauda equina - wikidoc
The cauda equina is a structure within the lower end of the spinal column of most vertebrates, that consists of nerve roots and rootlets from above. Cauda equina is sometimes considered as an extension of the pia mater of the spinal cord. The space in which the cerebro spinal fluid is present is actually an extension of the sub arachnoid space. In humans, because the spinal cord stops growing in infancy while the bones of the spine continue growing, the spinal cord in adults ends at about the level of the vertebra L1/L2 , and at birth at L3. However there is some variation in adults and the cord may end anywhere between vertebrae T12 to L3. Individual spinal nerve roots arise from the spinal cord as they do closer to the head, but as the differential growth occurs the top end of the nerve stays attached to the spinal cord and the lower end of the nerve exits the spinal column at its proper level, this results in a bundle-like structure of nerve fibres that extends caudally from the end of the ...

Severe Causes of Low Back PainSevere Causes of Low Back Pain
Cauda equina syndrome is a serious spinal condition that may lead permanent nerve damage if it is not treated immediately. Typical signs and symptoms of cauda equina syndrome include low back pain, sciatica, loss of sensorimotor in the lower limbs, bowel and bladder dysfunction, urinary retention, saddle paresthesia of the perineum, pain, numbness and weakness in both lower limbs. Direct mechanical compression, venous congestion and ischemia are the possible causes of nerve root damage in the lumbar spine. Lumbar disc herniation, trauma and vertebral metastasis are the common causes that lead to secondary spinal canal stenosis and compression of the cauda equina. MRI of the lumbar spine can identify the source and location of the compression of the cauda equina ...

Cyst of the filum terminale: two cases detected on prenatal ultrasound.Cyst of the filum terminale: two cases detected on prenatal ultrasound.
We herein report two cases of cyst of the filum terminale, diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in the second and third trimesters, respectively. The first case, a 32-year-old primigravida, was referred to our center at 20weeks for a detailed anomaly scan because of a suspected periconceptional toxoplasmosis infection. Her medical and family histories were unremarkable except for obesity, with a body mass index of 35.3 kg/m2. Transabdominal ultrasound did not detect major fetal anomalies, but because of a persistent breech presentation sonographic assessment of the spine was completed with the aid of a transvaginal approach (Figure 1; Videoclip S1). At the level of L4, just caudal to the lower end of the conus medullaris and within the filum terminale, a fusiform anechoic unilocular cyst measuring 3×2mm was visualized. The cyst showed neither septations nor solid components, and was nonvascularized on high-definition color Doppler imaging (Videoclip S1). Using the three-dimensional multiplanar ...

Neurosurgical Consultants: Degenerative Spinal Conditions: EpendymomasNeurosurgical Consultants: Degenerative Spinal Conditions: Ependymomas
TREATMENT. Surgery. The role of surgery for Filum Terminale Ependymomas depends on the size of the tumor and its relationship to the surrounding roots of the Cauda Equina. We strongly favor Minimally Invasive Microsurgical with Gross Total Resection when possible. Complete surgical resection can be accomplished with small and moderate-sized tumors that remain well circumscribed within the fibrous coverings of the Filum Terminale and are separable from the Nerve Roots of the Cauda Equina. Large tumors can present significant problems for surgical resection. These tumors have been present for many years and present a risk for spread through the Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF). Filum Terminale Ependymomas that are large and adherent to many Nerve Roots can make total removal difficult to impossible without considerable damage to the Nerve Roots to which they are densely adherent.. ...

Bruce developed chronic lower back pain in December 2014, having experienced intermittent discomfort over the previous four years.. For most of his working life, Bruce was a labourer and painter. He loved his work, but spent large amounts of time in awkward positions that placed considerable strain on his lower back.. Bruce sought medical advice for his back pain and a CT image showed degenerative changes to the lower part of his spine. This included pressure on the exiting nerves at the L5/S1 vertebrae and a disc protrusion causing spinal canal narrowing at the L4/5 vertebrae.. In March 2015, Bruce went to his GP after his condition worsened considerably. His pain had increased and he was now experiencing lower limb weakness and reduced mobility. Before he could see a spinal specialist, Bruce was taken by ambulance to the local emergency department.. After admission, Bruce had an MRI of the lumbar area of his spine that showed complete compression of the thecal sac and cauda equina nerve roots. ...

The (Low) Risk of ManipulationThe (Low) Risk of Manipulation
Lumbar thrust joint manipulations appear to be even safer than cervical manipulation. With lumbar manipulation, the greatest complication is cauda equina syndrome. Cauda equina syndrome is damage to the cauda equina causing widespread neurological compromise, urinary retention, and fecal incontinence. In an editorial by Tim Flynn titled, Move it and move on he estimated the post-lumbar manipulation risk was 1 in 6 million. An interesting article by Childs et al in 2006 found that there was a greater risk by withholding lumbar manipulation in patients with low back pain (4). In the study there was greater risk to the patient by NOT perform spinal manipulation. The study also found that even individuals who did not meet the clinical prediction rule for spinal manipulation did not have increased disability ...

Carolyns Sick Journey: March 2008Carolyns Sick Journey: March 2008
The filum terminale is like a thin elastic band, about 8 inches long. At the top, it is formed from one of the layers of tissue surrounding your spinal cord, and extends from the bottom of your spinal cord to the tip of your tail bone. The outside of the elastic band has a few nerve fibres sticking to it.. The filum terminale works as an anchor for the spinal cord. For people with normal anatomy, the filum stretches when they bend over to allow the spinal cord to move up in the spinal column and then goes back to normal length when the person straightens up and gently pulls the spinal cord back to its normal position.. When the filum is fat-filled, fibrous and tight, it will not allow the spinal cord to move up and down within the spinal column, and so the spinal cord and the nerves end up being stretched instead of the filum. In most people this causes nerve damage.. Everybody has a filum terminale; it is a threadlike piece of tissue that connects the end of the spinal cord to the sacral end ...

Difference between revisions of Paper - Factors Involved In The Formation Of The Filum Terminale - EmbryologyDifference between revisions of Paper - Factors Involved In The Formation Of The Filum Terminale - Embryology
Kunitomo further calls attention to the fact that in the formation of the filum terminale, in addition to the dedifferentiation of the caudal end of the medullary tube, there is also the mechanical disproportion between the growth of the medullary tube and that of the vertebral column. How much of one and how much of the other of these two factors is responsible for the further development of the filum terminale Was not determined by him. It has occurred to the writer that this question could be answered by the determination ofthe elongation of the nerve roots. ln the younger stages the spinal cord and the vertebral column lie alongside of each other in a metameric manner, corresponding in position segment for segment. Owing to their disproportion in growth, there occurs a relative displacement of their segment levels, so that, for instance, the thirtieth segment of the cord comes to lie opposite the twentieth segment of the vertebral column. The segment levels of the vertebral column are, of ...

Hes had a good life, but not a great life. Several years ago, he was diagnosed with Cauda Equina Syndrome (Horse Tail Syndrome) where the spinal canal narrows over time, pressing down on the spinal cord causing damage and chronic pain. Hes been on pain killers for most of those years and has been quite well.. But (and Im leaving out a lot of details...) in August, Batty began coming to us at night as we slept, waking me up by panting heavily into my face. Id get up, give him a small dose of pain killer (vets advice) and go back to sleep. That worked fairly well, but the condition worsened. Within a few weeks, the pain killers were not helping him. The condition continued to get worse until I spent whole nights; from 1am till the sun came up; calming him down and trying to make him comfortable. We thought it was all related to the Cauda Equina. We were wrong.. I despise it when a pre-existing illness/disease makes it difficult to realise that theres a separate serious problem going ...

Prescriptionpad Handouts - Cauda Equina SyndromePrescriptionpad Handouts - Cauda Equina Syndrome
Cauda equina syndrome is a surgical emergency. Persons should seek immediate medical care or go to the emergency department if they believe they have symptoms of cauda equina syndrome. Some of the early symptoms related to cauda equina syndrome, including low back pain and muscle weakness, are more often caused by simple disk herniation, which does not require urgent attention. However, if you develop severe pain or loss of sensation or bowel or bladder disturbances, you should contact your physician immediately. Your chances of regaining normal function and having a positive outcome are related to how long you have had symptoms of cauda equina syndrome. Most experts agree that people with cauda equina syndrome should undergo surgery to make more space for the nerves (lumbar decompression) within 48 hours in order to have the best chance for complete recovery. ...

Abstract: Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) is a rare progressive syndrome of pain and neurological deficits below the waist caused by massive central lumbar disc prolapse. The most common clinical presentation is highly variable with multifocal mixed polyradicular deficits. Loss of bladder and/or bowel control can be subtle and is frequently not the patient chief complaint. These symptoms must be aggressively sought by the assessing physician. While delays of a few hours in the diagnosis and management may not be deleterious, definitive lumbar MRI imaging and (if positive) surgical care referral are emergent ...

My name is Fabio and I underwent surgery for a critical spinal damage in 2010, which was discovered to be the Cauda Equina Syndrome.

Until 17.11.2018 when after suffering a car accident with another car: while not getting any personal damage from that, and in mean time I was friendly exchanging insurance information with the woman, I was assaulted with a head butted by her husband who just arrived from home, making me fall to the ground unconscious. After being rushed to the hospital with head trauma, facial trauma and severe back pain, from that day Im fighting against head pain and experiencing weakness of my left leg: Im unable to normally walk or drive a car with a manual gearbox, Im unable to work and I have to afford many legal and medical expenses.

N2 - We report a very rare case of granulocytic sarcoma (GS) with muscle and peripheral nerve extension but without bone marrow involvement. A 53-year-old woman presented with sciatic pain and diplopia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral orbital and cauda equina region tumors. The blood cell count, and bone marrow histology and cytology were normal. The characteristic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytologic picture of CD14+, CD33+, CD4+, CD56+ and positive nonspecific erastase staining suggested the diagnosis of GS. The patient underwent intrathecal and systemic chemotherapy, as if she had acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This case emphasizes the value of CSF cytological examination and the use of ...

The most common cause of cauda equina syndrome is a large midline disk herniation, usually at L4-5 or L5-S1 interspaces. Other causes include spinal metastases, spinal hematoma, epidural abscess, vertebral fracture, or transverse myelitis.1,2 Although anal sphincter tone is decreased in up to 80% of patients, an elevated postvoid residual is the most consistent finding to make the diagnosis.3 A postvoid residual of more than 100 to 200 mL of urine is 90% sensitive and 95% specific for the diagnosis in patients suspected of cauda equina syndrome.4 The diagnosis is confirmed by an emergent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Treatment consists of high-dose IV steroids (recommendations range from 4 to 100 mg of ...
