Abstract
|
|
|
The authors report two patients with lumbosacral epidural lipomatosis with compressive neuropathy. The first patient had a history of two short terms of oral steroid administration and eleven caudal blocks. The second patient had neither taken steroids nor had any previous disease history. Both patients had experienced slow progressing neuropathic symptoms for one to two years. Both patients were managed surgically resulting in neurologic improvement.
