  • Title: [Neurogenic intermittent claudication].
    Author: Jarmundowicz W, Haftek J.
    Journal: Neurol Neurochir Pol; 1984; 18(5):493-7. PubMed ID: 6527729.
    Abstract:
    In the period 1971-1981 operations were carried out in 1114 cases of discopathy or lumbar spondylosis. Three patients in this group had pains of the type of intermittent claudication as the main symptoms. In all these cases narrowing of the vertebral canal was found in the lumbar part caused in two cases by degenerative changes and herniation of the intervertebral discs, and in a third case it was due to an extensive connective tissue scar at the site of previously done laminectomy. The nerve roots of the cauda were relieved from pressure surgically and in all cases pains disappeared. The authors discuss factors contributing to the development of neurogenic intermittent claudication.
