Epidurales
Gas bei Vakuumphänomen der Bandscheiben in mehreren Etagen: Osteochondrose in multiplen Etagen mit Gasansammlungen intervertebral, in der Etage LWK 1/2 mit Austritt von Gas in den epiduralen Raum.
Lumbar epidural gas is a rare phenomenon where gas locules are observed within the central canal of the lumbar spine. It can arise from a number of factors:
- due to regional degenerative disc disease with or without dorsal epidural disc migration: thought to be from gas leaking from the disc space to the epidural area through the tears of annulus fibrosus, occurring mostly with herniated fragments
- traumatic pneumorrhachis
- postoperative pneumorrhachis
- from a degenerative spinal synovial cyst
- from a gas containing herniating regional ganglion cyst
