| Popis: |
A 62-year-old patient presented with a 12-month history of severe sciatica. The patient showed tenderness of Valleix and lateral lower leg pain on his left side. MRI, myelogram, and radiculography revealed extraforaminal stenosis at the level of L5/S1. His symptoms disappeared after injection of lidocaine onto the L5 spinal nerve. The symptoms did not improve after conservative treatment, and surgery was performed under a diagnosis of neuropathy from far-out syndrome. For release of L5 spinal nerve compression, decompression and instrumented fusion surgery were performed. His symptoms disappeared immediately after surgery. Far-out syndrome itself is rare; however, it is important to consider this disease in cases of sciatica. |
