Abstract Paraspinal ganglioneuromas with extension into the spinal extradural space are rare tumors. Their management usually requires cooperation with surgeons of other specialties. The authors describe a case of a dumbbell ganglioneuroma arising from the lumbar sympathetic ganglia in a patient presenting with a herniated lumbar disc. The clinical features, radiographic analysis, and surgical approach to these tumors are briefly discussed.

Filum terminale lipoma is an inherited lumbosacral abnormality that can cause tethered cord syndrome. This report describes an unusual case of lumbago and sciatica, pain suspected to be caused by a filum terminale lipoma where a herniated intervertebral disc had occurred. The patient was hospitalized for 43 days and received integrative Korean medicine treatment, including acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, Chuna therapy, cupping therapy, physiotherapy and herbal medicine. Treatment effectiveness was assessed using the numerical rating scale, Oswestry Disability Index, European Quality of Life 5-Dimensions, and patient symptoms. After inpatient treatment, the pain the patient suffered was significantly reduced, and the evaluation indices scores reflected this. Integrative Korean remedies may be an effective option for lower back pain and lower extremity symptoms which are caused by filum terminale lipoma where a herniated intervertebral disc has occurred. Additional clinical research is required to support this observation.
