A novel animal model of underactive bladder: analysis of lower urinary tract function in a rat lumbar canal stenosis model.
AIMS An animal model of neurogenic underactive bladder (UAB) has not been established. It was reported that a rat lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LCS) model created by cauda equina compression manifested intermittent claudication and allodynia. In this study, we examined the lower urinary tract function of the rat LCS model. METHODS One small hole was drilled at the fifth lumbar vertebral arch ...
متن کاملSpinal stenosis, a cause of cauda equina compression.
In 1934 Mixter and Barr described the syndrome of the ruptured intervertebral disc in the lumbar region. Since then the herniated intervertebral disc has been considered to be the dominant cause of low back pain and sciatica. In 1953 Schlesinger and Taveras pointed out that in the presence of a narrow spinal canal patients with herniated intervertebral discs may present an atypical picture of m...
متن کاملOver-Expression of PUMA Correlates with the Apoptosis of Spinal Cord Cells in Rat Neuropathic Intermittent Claudication Model
BACKGROUND Neuropathic intermittent claudication (NIC) is a typical clinical symptom of lumbar spinal stenosis and the apoptosis of neurons caused by cauda equina compression (CEC) has been proposed as an important reason. Whereas, the factors and the mechanism involved in the process of apoptosis induced by CEC remain unclear. METHODOLOGY AND RESULTS In our modified rat model of NIC, a trape...
متن کاملRedundant Nerve Root Syndrome of Cauda Equina
Objective: Recognizing cauda equina redundant nerve root syndrome is crucial before surgery. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of this condition are demonstrated. The aim of this study is to identify patients with redundant nerve root syndrome (RNS), well demonstrate (MRI) findings, notify the surgeon before the surgery and therefore to prevent a potential catastrophe. Methods: Ten pati...
متن کاملPostoperative outcome of lumbar spinal canal stenosis after fenestration: correlation with changes in intradural and extradural tube on magnetic resonance imaging.
PURPOSE To evaluate the serial changes in clinical results and the intradural and extradural spaces on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after bilateral fenestration in 48 patients with lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSCS). METHODS A prospective interventional study was performed to study the clinical results, magnetic resonance imaging scans among patients who were followed up for more than 3 ...
