Abstract
|
|
|
|
The deterioration of neurologic symptoms, like disc rupture or cauda equina syndrome within short time caused by abdominal pressure, seems to be an uncommon event. We experienced a man who had a sudden deterioration to cauda equina syndrome for a day. We presume that the reason is the increase of abdominal pressure by coughing. He had also undergone to repetitive minute damage after degenerative condition. Therefore, doctors and patients should be aware about degenerative state, possibility of minute damage, and be careful to its cause like coughing.
