Abstract
The epidural lipomatosis is the unusual result of fat
deposition in the extradural space of spinal canal, and most
cases are associated with the chronic systemic steroid
treatment. Symptoms related to spinal stenosis are postulated
to result from spinal cord and nerve root compression.
MR imaging is the first choice of the investigation
method. Patients with acute progressive symptoms are best
treated surgically, while others with stable symptoms can
initially be treated medically with immediate tapering
of their steroid dose. We reported one case of lumbar spinal
stenosis induced by epidural lipomatosis receiving chronic
steroid treatment. Surgical treatment could not be performed
because of the poor general condition. Rehabilitation care
and nonoperative therapy were effective in improving
symptoms in lumbar epidural spinal stenosis induced by
epidural lipomatosis.
