  • Title: Cauda equina compression by malignant lymphoma: long-term survival following multimodality therapy.
    Author: Ampil F, Polin R, Nanda A.
    Journal: Leuk Lymphoma; 2001 Apr; 41(3-4):417-20. PubMed ID: 11378555.
    Abstract:
    Malignant lymphoma compression of the cauda equina is rare. In the literature only a few cases have been described with occasional long term survivors. We report another case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting with cauda equina compression. Significant palliation and long-term survival were achieved after therapy by decompressive, cytoreductive surgery; local irradiation; and chemotherapy.
