Herein, we present a case of a 74 year-old female with diskogenic back pain and L5 radiculopathy found to have a duplicated L5 nerve root intraoperatively. Interestingly, the L5-S1 disk was found to be normal and unlikely to contribute to her presentation. She underwent L5-S1 laminectomy ...
MRI. The laterality of the thickness and exit angle of the conjoined right L5–S1 nerve root was retrospectively confirmed (white arrow: right L5 root; open arrow: right S1 nerve root). a T2 coronal view at the L5 nerve root. b T2 coronal view at the L5/S1 nerve roots. c T2 coronal...

Entrapment of the \{L5\} nerve root by anterior osteophytes at the L5-S1 junction is rarely reported. Posterior decompression of the \{L5\} nerve root is commonly performed, but anterior decompression of the \{L5\} nerve root is not a frequently performed procedure. The purpose of this ...
Most often, it is caused by a slipped disc, that is, herniation of a lumbar intervertebral disc, which compresses either the L5 or S1 nerve. Approximately 95% of lumbar intervertebral discs which compress the nerve root occurs at L4/5 or L5/S1 hence affecting the L5 or S1 nerve roots ...

The L5 nerve root was ligated using 4–0 non-absorbable sutures with three surgical ties. Wound closure was performed in a layer-by-layer manner. After NRL, a heating pad was used to maintain the rats’ temperature at 37 °C until recovery from anesthesia. Sciatic nerve stimulation Four ...
His body temperature was 36.7 °C, his pulse rate was 56 beats per minute, and his blood pressure was 125/69 mm/Hg at the time of admission. Intraoperatively, we discovered that the right L5 root originated from the caudal level of the L5 pedicle and was conjoined with the right S1 ...
Spondylolisthesis, sometimes with compression of a spinal nerve root 脊椎前移,有时伴随脊神经根受压迫 ParaCrawl Corpus Such protrusions can press on spinal nerves, and so it's not surprising that this can be painful. 这样的突起可以按脊神经, 所以这并不奇怪,这可能是痛苦的. ParaCrawl Corpus...
L5 radiculopathy is the most common lower extremity radiculopathy. This is partially due to the long course of the L5 root within thecauda equinarendering it (along with the S1 root) susceptible to compression at multiple spinal levels. Weakness of ankle and toe dorsiflexion is common in patients...
