Acute Paraplegia

Paraplegia is a rare postoperative complication. We present a case of acute paraplegia after elective gastrectomy surgery because of cervical disc herniation. The 73-year-old man has the medical history of cervical spondylitis with only symptom of temporary pain in neck and shoulder. Although the patient’s neck was cautiously preserved by using the Discopo, an acute paraplegia emerged at about 10 hours after the operation. Severe compression of the spinal cord by herniation of the C4-C5 cervical disc was diagnosed and emergency surgical decompression was performed immediately. Unfortunately the patient showed limited improvement in neurologic deficits even after 11 months.

Spinal Lipoma

Intradural spinal lipomas are rare, and their origin is unknown. Although the clinical presentation may not be distinctive, patients usually present with neurological deficits secondary to mass effect. Total excision may not be possible all time, although subtotal resection is easily done by microsurgery. We report a case of intradural spinal lipoma of the conus medullaries. Total excision was done under microscope and histopathology proved lipoma. Bang. J Neurosurgery 2019; 8(2): 112-114
