British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2023
Cauda equina syndrome is an uncommon but serious cause of lower back pain resulting from compression of the cauda equina nerve roots, most commonly by lumbar disc herniation. Red flag symptoms, such as bladder dysfunction, saddle anaesthesia and sciatica, should lead to high clinical suspicion of cauda equina syndrome.

Cauda equina syndrome

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.

Cauda Equina Syndrome

Contemporary Spine Surgery, 2000
Abstract The cauda equina is a collection of peripheral nerves in the common dural sheath within the lumbar spinal canal. Cauda equina syndrome, also known as bilateral acute radicular syndrome, usually is caused by a large, sequestered acute disc rupture at L3-4, L4-5, or L5-S1 that produces partial or complete lesions of the cauda equina–lower motor ...

Cauda equina syndrome is a relatively uncommon condition typically associated with a large, space-occupying lesion within the canal of the lumbosacral spine. The syndrome is characterized by varying patterns of low back pain, sciatica, lower extremity sensorimotor loss, and bowel and bladder dysfunction.

Spinal arachnoid sleeves and their possible causative role in cauda equina syndrome and transient radicular irritation syndrome

Clinical anatomy (New York, N.Y. Print), 2021
We have previously described arachnoid sleeves around cauda equina nerve roots, but at that time we did not determine whether injections could be performed within those sleeves.
