"IntroductionCauda equina syndrome (CES) is a clinical-radiological syndrome caused by compression of lumbosacral nerve roots below the conus medullaris. Etiologies of CES include lumbar disk herniation, primary or secondary tumors, lumbar canal stenosis, spinal infection and others.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215">1–3</a> CES may present as low-back pain, unilateral or bilateral sciatica, lower limb weakness or hypoesthesia, saddle anesthesia, urinary and anal sphincter dysfunction, sexual impairment, or combinations of these. A lumbosacral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides diagnostic confirmation in the great majority of cases.CES caused by direct root compression due to lumbar disk prolapse or extrusion has been classically considered a surgical emergency needing prompt decompression. Numerous publications support performing surgery as early as possible, probably within 48h of symptom onset, in order to decrease de likelihood of definitive damage to nerve roots that may result in permanent disability.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0125">4–9</a>Since the presence of all those signs and symptoms simultaneously are not required for the diagnosis of CES, Gleave and McFarlane<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125">4</a> have underscored the importance of distinguishing between incomplete CES (CESI) and complete CES with urinary retention (CESR) as depicted in <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0005">Table 1</a>. This distinction carries prognostic implications regarding functional recovery.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145">8</a><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0005"></elsevierMultimedia>The objective of this study was to describe the long-term functional outcome, in terms of pain, sensory, motor and sphincter recovery, of a cohort of patients with CESI or CESR caused by acute disk herniation admitted to our neurosurgery department.Materials and methodsThis study was approved by our local Institutional Ethics Committee (reference number: CEIC#2086), which waived the requirement for specific informed consent. It was a retrospective case series analysis performed at a single tertiary center. The cohort included all consecutive patients of any age admitted to the neurosurgery department within the time period 2000–2016 with the diagnosis of CESI or CESR secondary to disk herniation. All patients were referred from the Emergency department of the center.Diagnosis of CES was suspected upon clinical presentation and confirmed with urgent lumbosacral MRI. According to clinical affectation, CES patients were categorized into CESI and CESR groups for data analysis. All patients underwent decompressive surgery via a standard posterior approach to the spinal level involved. The type of surgery was left at the surgeon's criteria. Timing of surgery was conditioned by several factors like patient's co-morbidity, availability of operating theater and anesthesiologist, patient's preferences, and others, but always considered an emergent/urgent event, to be performed as soon as possible.Demographic data of the cohort was retrospectively obtained from medical records. We assessed clinical status preoperatively, at the initial postoperative period, and at the end of follow up. The time interval from the onset of symptoms to MRI diagnosis, and from diagnosis to surgery was recorded. Lower limb sensory-motor and bladder and bowel functions were assessed preoperatively and at the end of follow up. All patients were clinically assessed and followed a minimum of twenty months at the Neurosurgery and Urology outpatient clinic, in order to evaluate their definitive clinical status and neurologic sequels. The degree of urinary sphincter recovery was determined by urologist examination. When the patient did not need intermittent catheterization and had a residual urine volume<100mL it was considered partial recovery.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0155">10</a> Otherwise, it was registered as no recovery. For outcome analysis, surgical decompression performed within 48h from symptom onset was considered as early intervention.Data from clinical variables were collected in a Microsoft Excel sheet (Microsoft Corp., Redmont, WA, USA) and statistical analysis was performed with SPSS v.20 software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Fisher's Exact Test was used for comparison of qualitative variables. The statistical significance was set at p<0.05.ResultsOverall, 22 patients were included in the study. <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0010">Table 2</a> shows the main clinical features of the cohort including spinal level, time interval from presentation to surgery, type of surgery, and initial and final outcome. Median age was 44 years (range, 23–60), and the majority were males. Eight patients were categorized as CESR and 14 as CESI. Disk herniations occurred at the levels L4L5 (n=10), L5S1 (n=8) and L3L4 (n=4). Overall, the median time from the onset of symptoms to MRI diagnosis was 78h and the median time from diagnosis to surgery was 24h as shown in <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0015">Table 3</a>.<elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0010"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0015"></elsevierMultimedia>Eighteen patients underwent bilateral laminectomy and removal of the extruded disk. In 3 patients internal pedicle fixation was added to laminectomy, and one patient underwent disk herniation removal via hemilaminectomy. The median follow-up duration of the cohort was 75.5 months (range, 20–195 months).Overall, all signs and symptoms tended to improve after surgery in both groups. In the CESR group (n=8), the median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 55h and from diagnosis to surgery 23h. In this group, only back pain and sciatica significantly improved at the end of follow up (see <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0020">Table 4</a>). In the CESI group (n=14), the median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 96h and from diagnosis to surgery 23h. In this group, sciatic and back pain, and bladder dysfunction significantly improved at the end of follow up (see <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0025">Table 5</a>) compared to the preoperative status.<elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0020"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0025"></elsevierMultimedia>At the end of follow up, among CESI patients, 2 out of 14 did not recover urinary sphincter function and 1 out of 3 did not recover anal sphincter control. However, among CESR patients, 6 and 4 out of 8 did not recover urinary and anal sphincter function, respectively. Motor function did not recover in 1 out of 8 CESI, and in 4 out of 6 CESR patients. Perineal hypoesthesia persisted in 2 out of 6 CESI patients and complete saddle anesthesia persisted in 4 out of 7 CESR patients.Early surgery (within 48h from the onset of symptoms) could only be performed in 4 patients of the entire cohort. Regarding bladder and bowel function recovery, at the end of follow up, there were no significant differences between those operated on before 48h and those operated later (Fisher's Exact Test p-value=0.0766) as shown in <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0030">Table 6</a>. Due to the small number of participants, no direct statistical comparison could be made between early and late surgery regarding CESI and CESR subtypes. However, among the 4 cases undergoing early operation (2 CESR and 2 CESI), only one CESI patient finally recovered sphincter functions. At the end of follow up, 5 male patients reported sexual impairment (erectile dysfunction and/or genital anesthesia), all belonging to the CESR group.<elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0030"></elsevierMultimedia><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a> shows a radiographic example of a CESR patient caused by a L4L5 massive disk extrusion that underwent bilateral laminectomy and decompression of the dural sac and roots. The extruded disk could be removed in one large piece as shown in <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>.<elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0010"></elsevierMultimedia>DiscussionThe incidence of CES among the general population is very low and the estimates are 1 in every 33,000 or 100,000 persons.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215">1,3</a> Assuming an annual incidence of disk herniation of 150 per 10,000 persons, only about 0.12% of herniated discs may result in CES.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115">2</a> Presentation of CES may be acute, over a period of a few hours and due to primary disk pathology or as a consequence of chronic low back pain and sciatica, or slowly and insidiously progressing to urinary retention.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115">2</a>The most frequent etiology of CES is lumbar disk herniation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0160">11</a> Less common causes include epidural hematoma, neoplasms, trauma, and even spinal manipulation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0165">12,13</a> CES commonly presents suddenly within the context of a prolapsed or extruded lumbar disk. Sometimes the patient is able to remember the exact moment when the symptoms began, for example, after making a significant physical effort. However, CES can also appear in patients with chronically compressed roots as in lumbar canal stenosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0175">14</a> In some patients, previous disabling low back pain and sciatica may significantly ameliorate or even disappear at the moment of massive disk extrusion, with saddle anesthesia and accompanying sphincter disturbance that may go unnoticed for a few hours, causing delay in diagnosis.The pathogenesis of CES is unclear and several mechanisms have been proposed: direct mechanical compression of the roots by the extruded piece of disk, inflammatory neuropathy of multiple lumbar-sacral roots, and cauda equina ischemia secondary to compression.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115">2,15</a> It has been reported that the anteroposterior diameter of the lumbar canal is significantly smaller in herniated disk patients presenting with CES compared to herniated patients without CES.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0185">16</a> Although CES may appear following disk extrusion at any level below L1-L2, the majority of patients present herniations at the lowest levels, that is, mainly L4-L5 and L5-S1,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0155">10,17</a> probably reflecting the overall incidence of lumbar herniated discs. In our series over 80% of the patients harbored disk extrusions at those two levels.Pain, motor and sphincter recoveryIn this cohort, pain improved in the great majority of patients immediately after surgery and the improvement persisted over the long time, in line with the natural history of patients operated on for sciatica due to lumbar disk herniation. Improvement of low back pain and sciatica was higher in CESI compared to CESR patients. Likewise, motor recovery over the long term tended to be higher in CESI compared to CESR patients, although the small sample size precluded direct comparisons. These findings support that CESI patients carry better postoperative prognosis in terms of motor function.Regarding bladder function recovery, in our cohort 15% of CESI and 75% of CESR patients (overall 36%) did not recover full control of urinary function, also in line with previous reports.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0155">10,13,17</a> Again, CES presentation as incomplete seemed to increase the chances of recovery. It is important to notice that surgery was performed after a median of 23h after MRI confirmation in both groups. Therefore, it is plausible that functional outcome of the cohort might be conditioned more by the severity of CES presentation rather than by the timing of surgery.Reddy et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0155">10</a> have highlighted the importance of assessing perianal sensation (PAS), a subjective variable, and voluntary anal contraction (VAC), a more objective measure, in CES patients. In their study, VAC proved to be a very sensitive marker for diagnosing CES, that was affected in 100% of CES patients, and the presence of PAS significantly correlated with neurologic recovery, so that, when PAS was permanently absent, chances of bladder function recovery were minimal. In our series, PAS was abolished in 43% of CESI and 87.5% of CESR patients at the moment of presentation. Subsequently, at the end of follow up, 85% of CESI and 25% of CESR patients had recovered, either partial or complete, urinary function. Again, CESI patients fared better regarding bladder function recovery. Unfortunately, VAC was not assessed in our cohort. Although PAS and VAC seem to be valuable sings for CES assessment, they are still regarded as somehow invasive examinations that may provoke patient discomfort and some physicians tend to obviate them, especially when prompt image confirmation is available.Likewise, assessment of impaired sexual function is often neglected or underestimated. In our series, 5 out of 8 CESR male patients reported erectile dysfunction over the long-term. The true incidence of sexual impairment in CES is not easy to evaluate because patients are not always asked about it at the moment of presentation or during follow up. Interestingly, in our retrospective review, we could not find any allusion to sexual impairment in any female patient record, maybe reflecting self-reporting bias.Timing of surgeryAccording to the current evidence, surgery is doubtlessly indicated in the presence of CES due to disk extrusion.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115">2,18</a> There is no standard recommendation about what type of surgery or surgical approach is preferred in CES. However, it seems reasonable that any procedure achieving wide nerve roots decompression might be adequate. It has been reported that dural opening in this type of interventions may be beneficial in cases of markedly swollen cauda equina.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115">2,19</a>Previous studies and systematic reviews have underscored the importance of performing surgery as soon as possible (or, on the next available list), better within the first 24–48h of presentation,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0130">5–7,18</a> in order to minimize permanent disability derived from nerve root damage.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205">20</a> However, this recommendation is mainly based on retrospective case series and the optimal time window for intervention remains controversial. The recent systematic review by Srikandarajah et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0150">9</a> highlights the importance of providing objective measures for adequate preoperative and postoperative evaluation, given the heterogeneity of outcome categorization found in published studies, and the limited number of patients. They indicate the need for a core outcome set of measures, with specific domains and subdomains, in order to appropriately assess outcomes reported in eventual trials and observational studies of CES surgery. They also recommend the use of CESI and CESR definitions to categorize patients before treatment aimed to distinguish prognostic subgroups.The distinction between CESI and CESR carries prognostic implications. According to the commonly cited publication by Gleave and Macfarlane,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125">4</a> CESI patients generally do well following early surgery and CESR patients have considerably poorer prognosis with or without surgery. However, a specific time breakpoint for surgery is not yet established. From an ethical point of view, the enormous amount of opinions reported in the literature in favor of urgent surgical decompression virtually precludes the conduction of an eventual randomized controlled trial aimed to elucidate the usefulness and timing of surgery in CES.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115">2</a> Thus, presumably, only observational cohort studies will be available in the future. Therefore, multicenter cohort studies, in which CESI and CESR categorization is carefully defined, are needed. As a general rule, the current standard of care in CES recommends emergent surgical decompression, by day or night, in CESI patients, and surgery on the following day's list for established CESR cases.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0170">13,18</a>Surgeon's experience has been reported to be an important factor in CES surgery.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0125">4,7,13</a> In our view, the intervention needed for spinal decompression in CES, that is lumbar laminectomy, is a rather basic procedure for any appropriately trained neurosurgeon or spinal surgeon. Normally, this operation can be safely performed on an urgent basis in any department accustomed to regular spinal surgery. Whether etiology, mode of presentation, sex or level of disk herniation influence surgical timing, remains yet unknown. Current evidence suggest that CESI patients seem to benefit more from early surgery than CESR patients, so efforts should be made to detect patients before complete CES ensues.Legal implications of CESCES is fortunately a rare complication of lumbar disk herniation, however with devastating consequences for the individual. At least 50% of CES cases present as CESR at the time of admission and 50–70% have a relatively acute onset.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170">13</a> Overall, about 75% of all CES patients will eventually recover acceptable urinary function although motor and sensory defects may remain over the long time.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115">2,13</a> About 20% of CES patients will have a poor outcome, needing self-catheterization, bowel disturbances or even colostomy, sexual function impairment and various degrees of chronic back pain and chronic psychological distress.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170">13</a>A number of causes have been related to an increased incidence of litigation in CES. This is a typically often-neglected and under-recognized condition in emergency services. Reasons for going unrecognized include confusion among healthcare professionals regarding clinical symptoms and signs of presentation, and unavailability of prompt confirmatory diagnosis by MRI.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0215">1</a> Additionally, vague symptoms and low socioeconomic level has been reported to favor the delay in searching for medical help. Overcrowding of public health services may result in long queues that could aggravate the consequences of not recognizing CES earlier.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0215">1</a>Baseline examination of anal sphincter tone and perianal pin-prick sensation should be part of the management protocol in CES patients. Emergency MRI needs to be arranged as soon as possible, although its availability is many times conditioned by local circumstances. From a legal standpoint, it is highly recommended to record precise times (date and hour) of any neurological deterioration, especially regarding bladder function changes.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170">13</a>Timing for surgery in CES carry medical-legal implications. As mentioned, current consensus recommends urgent but not necessarily emergent surgery for CESI patients, and to perform surgery under optimal conditions and preferably within 24–48h of admission.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0140">7,18</a> Realistic information to the patient about the natural history of CES and the expected outcome after surgery is necessary in order to reduce the likelihood of litigation.Given its rarity, CES is however a disproportionally common cause of litigation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0175">14,21</a> Unawareness of the condition and lack of urgency in its management along with the devastating consequences for the patient favors judicial claiming. According to past settlements, compensations for damages can be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars/euros/pounds, or even to exceed the million.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170">13</a> Unfortunately, at least 50% of patients develop CESR within the first 4–6h, a rather short time period to achieve adequate hospital referral, MRI diagnosis and surgery.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170">13</a> Litigation can be minimized if expected outcome is fully explained and understood before surgery. In our series, a relevant proportion of patients presented with permanent neurologic defects at the end of follow up, although none of the cases resulted in litigation. Ultimately, it is a tragedy if an incomplete CES becomes complete, especially under medical supervision.This study has limitations. Bias related to sample size, retrospective data extraction and lack of comparison group might be present. Because of the small number of patients, we did not correlate the type of surgery with the likelihood of recovery. Although lumbar laminectomy is a rather standard operation, five different surgeons participated in the interventions throughout the study period. Finally, stratified comparison between patients operated on early and late was conditioned by the small number of participants.ConclusionLow back and sciatic pain associated to CES almost invariably improved after surgical removal of the extruded disk. In this cohort, urinary sphincter dysfunction significantly improved over the long-term only in the incomplete CES subgroup. However, we could not demonstrate a statistically significant likelihood of sphincter recovery among those operated on before 48h from the onset of symptoms compared to those operated on later, maybe because of the small number of patients. The results of this cohort study, followed a median of 6 years, support the idea that CESR and CESI are differentiated entities in terms of functional recovery after surgery.FinancingThis work has not received any funding from public agencies, non-profit entities or private companies.This work was presented as an oral presentation at the XIX Congress of Neuroraquis held in Seville on 7–8 March 2019.Conflict of interestNone."

CES can be subdivided into CESI (incomplete CES) and CESR (complete CES with urinary retention and incontinence). This paper evaluates the long-term functional outcome of a CES cohort operated on due to disk herniation. MethodsSingle-center retrospective observational study. CES patients due to disk herniation that underwent surgery between 2000 and 2016 were included in the study. Demographic data, time intervals to diagnosis and surgery, preoperative neurologic status and outcome at the end of follow up were recorded. ResultsTwenty-two patients were included (median age 44 years). Eight patients were CESR and 14 CESI. Median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 78h (range, 12–720h), and from diagnosis to surgery 24h (range, 5–120h). Median follow up was 75 months (range, 20–195 months). At the end of follow up, in the CESR group (median time from diagnosis to surgery, 23h) only pain significantly improved after surgery (p=0.007). In the CESI group (median time from diagnosis to surgery 23h) low back pain, sciatica and urinary sphincter function significantly improved (p<0.001). There were no significant differences between early (<48h) operation (n=4) and late (n=18) in terms of sphincter recovery (Fisher's Exact Test, p=0.076). ConclusionPain associated to CES improved both in the CESI and CESR groups. However, urinary sphincter impairment significantly improved only in the CESI group.

El SCC puede dividirse en SCC-I (incompleto) y en SCC-C (completo, con retención urinaria e incontinencia). Este trabajo evalúa el pronóstico funcional a largo plazo de una cohorte de pacientes con SCC por hernia discal intervenidos. Material y métodosEstudio observacional retrospectivo unicéntrico. Se incluyeron todos los pacientes diagnosticados de SCC por hernia discal e intervenidos en el período 2000-2016. Se recogieron datos demográficos, intervalos de tiempo entre el inicio de síntomas, el diagnóstico y la cirugía, y estado neurológico preoperatorio y al final del seguimiento. ResultadosSe incluyeron un total de 22 pacientes (edad mediana de 44 años). Ocho casos fueron SCC-C y 14 SCC-I. El tiempo medio desde el inicio de los síntomas hasta el diagnóstico fue de 78h (rango, 12-720h), y desde el diagnóstico hasta la cirugía de 24h (rango, 5-120h). El seguimiento mediano fue de 75 meses (rango, 20-195). Al final del seguimiento, en el grupo SCC-C (tiempo medio desde diagnóstico hasta la cirugía, 23h) sólo el dolor mejoró de forma significativa tras la cirugía (p = 0,007). En el grupo SCC-I (tiempo medio desde diagnóstico hasta la cirugía, 23h) mejoraron significativamente el dolor lumbar, la ciática y el control del esfínter urinario (p < 0.01). No se constataron diferencias significativas entre los operados precozmente (antes de 48h, n = 4) y tardíamente (n = 18) en relación a la recuperación esfinteriana (Test exacto de Fisher, p = 0,076). ConclusiónEl dolor asociado al SCC mejoró tanto en los casos completos como incompletos. Sin embargo, el control del esfínter urinario sólo mejoró significativamente en los pacientes con síndromes incompletos.
