Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 1987
Although the specific etiology of NCE remains unknown, many advances have been made in recent years. It is hoped that we can expect continued success in this area. Etiologic and pathophysiologic determination of NCE is the key to developing an appropriate therapeutic regimen.

Progress in Neurobiology, 2001
Single or double-level compression of the lumbosacral nerve roots located in the dural sac results in a polyradicular symptomatology clinically diagnosed as cauda equina syndrome. The cauda equina nerve roots provide the sensory and motor innervation of most of the lower extremities, the pelvic floor and the sphincters.

Arachnoiditis ossificans of the cauda equina
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2012A case of post-traumatic arachnoiditis ossificans of the cauda equina is reported. The lesion is a rare pathological entity usually confined to the thoracic and high lumbar regions that can cause progressive spinal cord and cauda equine compression. The pathophysiology and therapeutic strategy of this rare entity are still controversial.

CLAUDICATION OF THE CAUDA EQUINA
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1977The term “claudication of the cauda equina” is examined. It has arisen from semantic errors, and a belief in ischæmia for which there is no scientific evidence. Its use tends to hamper rather than assist the investigation of patients with obscure pain in the lower limb. A preferable alternative term, “atypical sciatica”, is suggested.
