The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognosis of motor function in patients that experience the combination of a sudden disappearance of radicular pain and severe motor paresis. Eight patients were identified over a ten year period. Operative decompression of the affected lumbar root with removal of a disc prolapse seems to have a good prognosis if the patient is not paralytic before surgery. Patients treated conservatively for radicular pain should be advised to call their doctor immediately if they experience progressive motor paresis and diminishing pain.
本研究的目的是评估经历神经根性疼痛突然消失和严重运动性麻痹的患者的运动功能预后。在十年期间确定了8例患者。如果患者在手术前没有瘫痪，对受影响的腰椎神经根进行手术减压并切除椎间盘突出似乎预后良好。因神经根性疼痛接受保守治疗的患者如果出现进行性运动性麻痹和疼痛减轻，应建议他们立即就医。
