  • Surgically confirmed cauda equina and nerve root injury following percutaneous discectomy at an outside institution: a case report.
    Journal of Spinal Disorders, 1990
    Co-Authors: Nancy E. Epstein
    Abstract:

    : A 39-year-old woman sustained a permanent nerve root and cauda equina injury following a left-sided L5-S1 automated percutaneous discectomy (PERC) performed with the Nucleotome at an outside institution. Despite delayed surgery, which included excision of a sequestrated L5-S1 disc on the right and intradural exploration and resultant confirmation of a disrupted cauda equina, S1 radiculopathy, sacral numbness, and Overflow Incontinence persisted. Although PERC using the Nucleotome has been accepted by some as a safe alternative to the surgical management of disc disease, the paucity of similar complications reported in the literature may more closely reflect the medicolegal climate rather than the inherent safety of this technique.

  • Urinary Retention in Women
    2000
    Co-Authors: Roger R. Dmochowski
    Abstract:

    By definition, the woman afflicted with urinary retention is unable to completely empty her bladder. However, it is difficult to characterize the condition of urinary retention on the basis of the magnitude of residual volume alone, and more important to evaluate and render treatment for the presenting symptomatic complex and any associated urinary tract pathophysiology. Retention may be symptomatic or asymptomatic. Symptoms commonly associated with retention may include pure irritative (urgency, frequency), or obstructive (incomplete, bladder emptying, hesitancy) components, with or without abdominal or suprapubic discomfort, and urinary Incontinence (either due to Overflow Incontinence or detrusor overactivity). Urinary tract sequellae associated with retention include: alterations in bladder storage characteristics such as compliance changes, which result in abnormal bladder filling pressures, detrusor overactivity, abnormalities in bladder sensation, and effects on renal function owing to abnormal vesical storage pressures and/or recurrent urinary tract infection.
