A Case Report Myeloradiculapathy Lumbar

Abstract

Myelopathy is an injury to the spinal cord due to severe compression that may result from trauma, congenital stenosis, degenerative disease or herniated disc. Lumbosacral radiculopathy is the term used to describe pain syndrome caused by compression or irritation of nerves in the lower back. Factors that have the potential to cause radiculopathy are degenerative conditions, trauma, benign or malignant tumors, infections, and vascular conditions. Its prevalence is estimated at 3%-5% of the population and can affect both men and women. Age is a major risk factor for radiculopathy and can occur secondary to degenerative processes in the spine. Symptoms usually begin in middle age, with men often being affected in their 40s while women are affected in their 50s and 60s.
