Cauda Equina Syndrome

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2022
Cauda equina syndrome (CES) involves compression of some or all of the lumbar and sacral peripheral nerve roots. However, there is a lack of consensus in the literature regarding the exact diagnosis criteria in this patient population. Much of the pathophysiology has been studied regarding the onset of this condition; however, the long-term effects are

Ganglioneuroblastoma of the cauda equina

British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2000
A 39-year-old lady presented with low back pain and neurogenic claudication. Magnetic resonance imagining revealed an intradural neoplasm in the cauda equina region. The patient underwent lumbar laminectomy and total excision of the neoplasm. Biopsy showed it to be a ganglioneuroblastoma, which is rare in the spinal canal and so far does not appear to ...

Hemangioblastoma of the cauda equina

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1985
A very rare hemangioblastoma of the filum terminale with sciatic pain and partial cauda syndrome in a 36-year-old man is presented. The difference between solitary hemangioblastoma, hemangioblastomatosis and von Hippel-Lindau disease is stressed. The literature is reviewed and the diagnosis of cauda equina neoplasms is discussed.

Pacinioma of the cauda equina

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2006
Lesions composed of Pacinian corpuscles or showing Pacinian corpuscle differentiation have usually been described in relation to benign tumours of the peripheral nervous system or reactive hyperplastic processes. On the other hand, mature Pacinian corpuscles have occasionally been detected as part of intraspinal lumbosacral lipomas, a rare ...

Ependymoma of the Cauda Equina

Acta Neurochirurgica, 1999
Myxopapillary ependymomas are benign tumours which occasionally metastasize along cerebrospinal fluid pathways. Extraneural metastases of spinal ependymomas, however, are very rare, even more so when situated in the pleura. We report the case of a 67 year old woman presenting with shortness of breath after recurrent myxopapillary ependymomas of the ...
