  • Title: Magnetic resonance imaging of arachnoid diverticula associated with cauda equina syndrome in ankylosing spondylitis.
    Author: Sparling MJ, Bartleson JD, McLeod RA, Cohen MD, Ginsburg WW.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1989 Oct; 16(10):1335-7. PubMed ID: 2509695.
    Abstract:
    Cauda equina syndrome is an uncommon complication of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), but results in significant morbidity in those patients affected. We report 2 patients who developed classical cauda equina syndrome, which was well visualized by magnetic resonance imaging. This technique allows accurate noninvasive diagnosis of this complication of AS.
