Acute Paraplegia

Background. Acute onset paraplegia has a myriad of causes most often of a nonvascular origin. Vascular etiologies are infrequent causes and most often associated with postsurgical complications.Objective. To describe the occurrence and possible mechanism for aortic saddle embolism as a rare cause of acute paraplegia.Case Report. Described is a case of a 46-year-old female who presented with the sudden onset of nontraumatic low back pain with rapidly progressive paraplegia which was subsequently determined to be of vascular origin.

Lower Extremity Muscle

Adult tethered cord syndrome (ATCS) is a rare entity that usually presents with multiple neurological symptoms, including lower extremity pain, backache, lower extremity muscle weakness, and bowel/bladder disturbances. Prompt surgical treatment is often necessary to avoid permanent sequelae. We report a 63-year-old man with sudden-onset severe right chest and upper back pain, followed by urinary retention. His initial workup included computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis, which showed a presacral mass. His symptom-driven neurological workup focused on the cervical and thoracic spine, the results of which were normal. Pelvic radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbosacral spine showed spina bifida occulta, meningocele, and presacral masses consistent with a teratomatous tumor. His symptoms, except for urinary retention, improved dramatically with surgical treatment. The excised specimen contained a teratomatous lesion plus an organized hematoma. Hematoma formation was suspected as the trigger of his sudden-onset right chest and upper back pain.

Adrenal myelolipoma (AML) is a rare benign tumor, usually non-functioning and asymptomatic until it reaches large size. AML is mostly detected incidentally by imaging and is composed of adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements. Only symptomatic tumor needs surgical excision. We report the case of a large non-functioning adrenal tumor discovered by means of combined imaging techniques in a middle-aged male patient who complained the sudden onset of severe lower back pain; successful laparoscopic removal was performed, and AML was diagnosed at histopathology.

Background Seed-type partial ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) causing severe radiculopathy after rupture has not yet been described in the literature. Case Description A 51-year-old man presented with sudden onset severe back pain and right anterior thigh pain without any neurologic deficit after lifting a heavy weight. On preoperative computed tomography, we identified a ruptured seed-type partial OLF at the L1–L2 level. T2-weighted magnetic resonance sagittal and axial images showed thecal sac compression by the ruptured OLF. There was no improvement in his symptoms after 2 weeks of conservative management. The patient had percutaneous full endoscopic interlaminar removal of OLF. Postoperatively he experienced prompt improvement of his symptoms. Conclusion Rupture of seed-type partial OLF causing severe radiculopathy is extremely rare, and percutaneous endoscopy is a safe and effective alternative to open surgery in selected cases.
