Spinal subdural hygromas (SSEH) and spinal subarachnoid hygromas (SSSH) can cause cauda equina compression after lumbar decompression surgery. Early surgical intervention is crucial for symptom reversal, even without durotomy.

Area of Science:

Neurosurgery
Spinal Surgery
Neurology

Background:

Lumbar spinal decompression surgery effectively treats radicular symptoms.

Keywords:
