Low back pain is common during pregnancy. However, the prevalence of symtomatic lumbar disc herniation is rare, and cauda equina syndrome due to disc herniation during pregnancy is even rarer. We report a rare case of lumbar disc herniation causing cauda equina syndrome during third trimester of pregnancy which successfully treated by endoscopic discectomy. This case shows that endoscopic discectomy can be the treatment option for the lumbar disc herniation during pregnancy.
下背痛在怀孕期间很常见。然而,有症状的腰椎间盘突出症的患病率很低,而怀孕期间因椎间盘突出导致的马尾综合征则更为罕见。我们报告一例罕见的在妊娠晚期因腰椎间盘突出导致马尾综合征的病例,该病例通过内镜下椎间盘切除术成功治愈。此病例表明,内镜下椎间盘切除术可以作为怀孕期间腰椎间盘突出症的治疗选择。
