Abstract

Symptomatic lumbar ganglion cysts are infrequent lesions that are particularly encountered in elder patients. We report a 21 years old patient who was presented with left radicular pain and paresia. Radiological investigations of the patient revealed a round, cystic epidural lesion compressing the L5 nerve and the dural sac at L4- L5 level. The patient underwent successful microsurgical removal of the lesion. The pathological evaluation was consistent with a ganglion cyst. Although lumbar ganglion cysts are uncommon in young adults they should be considered in differential diagnosis, especially in patients presenting with radiculopathy. Meticulous microsurgical excision provides definite treatment and symptom relief and is particularly recommended in symptomatic cases.

Özet

Semptomatik lomber ganglion kistleri özellikle ileri yaşta görülen nadir lezyonlardır. Bu yazıda sol radiküler ağrı ve parezi ile başvuran 21 yaşında bir hasta sunmaktayız. Hastanın radyolojik görüntülemelerinde L4-L5 seviyesine lokalize, L5 köküne ve dural saka bası yapan yuvarlak, kistik bir lezyon tespit edildi. Lezyon başarılı bir mikrocerrahi ile çıkartıldı. Patolojik değerlendirme ganglion kisti ile uyumluydu. Genç erişkinlerde nadiren görülse de lomber ganglion kistleri özellikle radikülopati ile başvuran hastalarda ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmelidir. Lezyonun özenli bir mikrocerrahi ile çıkartılması kesin tedaviyi sağlayıp semptomları gidermektedir ve özellikle semptomatik olgularda önerilir.
