RESUMEN

RESUMEN

En un contexto de obesidad y/o corticoterapia prolongada, el incremento en el volumen del tejido adiposo epidural normal de la columna lumbosacra, puede ser causa de compresión sacorradicular simuladora de estrechez canalar o hernia discal. Entre 1986 y 1995 se estudiaron 6 pacientes con sacrorradiculografía, TC y RM. En todos los casos se observó hipertrofia de la grasa epidural responsable del cuadro compresivo
