Abstract
Objective To review the clinical research progress of spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL). Methods The clinical studies on SEL at home and abroad in recent years were extensively reviewed, and the pathogenesis, clinical and imaging manifestations, and treatment status of SEL were summarized and analyzed. Results SEL is a disease characterized by compression of the spinal cord and nerve roots due to abnormal accumulation of epidural adipose tissue in the spinal canal. Its prevalence and diagnosis rate are low and the pathogenesis is not fully understood. MRI is the most sensitive and specific diagnostic test for SEL. Surgical decompression and removal of excess adipose tissue are the only options for patients with acute SEL or those who have failed conservative management, and conservative management should be considered for other patients. Conclusion SEL is a rare disease and related research still needs to be improved. In the future, high-quality, multi-center and large-sample studies will be of great significance for evaluating the choice of treatment methods and effectiveness of SEL patients.

Abstract
Lumbar spinal stenosis is a common orthopedic disease in clinical practice at present. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) refers to the phenomenon of impaired memory. However, whether long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) GAS5 contributes to the mechanism of cognitive function in undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression remains unknown. Thus, the present study investigated the precise details of LncRNA GAS5 involvement in Postoperative cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression. Patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression with cognitive function and Normal healthy volunteers were obtained. C57BL/6 mice were maintained with a 2% concentration of sevoflurane in 100% oxygen at a flow rate of 2 L minute-1 for 4 hours. LncRNA GAS5 gene expression were up-regulated in patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression. In mice model, LncRNA GAS5 gene expression also increased. LncRNA GAS5 promoted neuroinflammation in vitro model. LncRNA GAS5 raised cognitive impairment and increased neuroinflammation in mice model. LncRNA GAS5 suppressed miR-137 in vitro model. MiR-137 reduced neuroinflammation in vitro model. MiR-137 suppressed TCF4 protein expression in vitro model. Transcription factor TCF4 activates the expression of bHLH. Taking together, this experiment provide the first experimental and clinical evidence that LncRNA GAS5/miR-137 promoted anesthesia-induced cognitive function to increase inflammatory bodies in patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression, suggesting it may be a biomarker of POCD and a potential therapeutic target for POCD.

Abstract
Background Lumbar spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL) is a rare condition characterized by an excessive accumulation of adipose tissue within the spinal canal, compressing the dura sac and/or nerve roots. When conservative treatments fail and clinical symptoms progress quickly and seriously, surgical decompression should be considered. With the rapid development of endoscopic armamentaria and techniques, the pathological scope that can be treated by percutaneous endoscopic spine surgery is ever expanding. Objective In this paper, the authors describe a patient with lumbar spinal epidural lipomatosis who was treated with a percutaneous full-endoscopic uniportal decompression surgery successfully. This article aims to validate the feasibility of percutaneous full-endoscopic uniportal decompression for the treatment of symptomatic idiopathic spinal epidural lipomatosis via interlaminar approach. Methods We describe a case of a 69-year-old man with a 10-year history of low back pain, intermittent claudication, and bilateral leg neuropathic pain. He was diagnosed with lumbar epidural lipomatosis, which did not respond to conservative therapy. After a comprehensive evaluation, he underwent percutaneous endoscopic spine surgery to remove hyperplastic adipose tissue and decompress nerve roots and dura sac. Results The patient was treated with a percutaneous full-endoscopic uniportal decompression surgery successfully. After the procedure, his leg pain decreased and his walking capacity improved. There were no surgery-related complications, such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage, incision infection, etc. Conclusions The case with SEL was successfully treated with a percutaneous full-endoscopic uniportal surgery, which has the advantages of excellent presentation of anatomical structures, expanded field of vision, less surgical-related trauma, and bleeding. The key point of the procedure is to release and cut off the bands which divide the epidural space into small rooms filled with excess adipose tissue.

JOURNAL OF NEUROSURGERY: CASE LESSONS 2021; 2:CASE21595. [PMID: 35855484 PMCID: PMC9281437 DOI: 10.3171/case21595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thoracic spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL) involves the pathological overgrowth of histologically normal, unencapsulated adipose tissue that can compress the spinal cord and cause myelopathy. SEL has been associated with multiple medical conditions, including Scheuermann kyphosis (SK). Optimal treatment strategies for SEL, especially in the setting of a sagittal spinal deformity, remain unclear. OBSERVATIONS In this report, the authors discussed surgical management of a patient with thoracic SEL and SK using skip hemilaminotomies for resection of the epidural adipose tissue. To the authors’ knowledge, only one other report described a similar surgical technique in a patient who did not have a spinal deformity. LESSONS When conservative efforts fail, thoracic SEL may require surgical treatment. Surgical planning must account for co-medical conditions such as SK. The described approach involving skip laminotomies, which minimizes spine destabilization, is a viable option to treat SEL spanning multiple spinal segments. Prognosis after surgical treatment varies and is impacted by multiple factors, including severity of preoperative neurological deficits.
