1 Mechanism of severe neurologic complications after steroid epidural injections Jean-Denis Laredo & Hervé Bard
2 Mechanism of severe neurologic complications after steroid epidural injections Different for cervical versus lumbar steroid epidural injections
3 Mechanism of severe neurologic complications after steroid epidural injections Cervical steroid epidural injections Epidural hematoma Intramedullary injection Infection Spinal cord infarction due to vascular ischemia
4 1/ cerebellar infarct: Vertebral artery territory 2/ Cervical spinal cord infarct: Cervical radiculo-medullary artery
5 Lumbar epidural steroid injection (LESI)
6 Mechanism of severe neurologic complications after steroid epidural injections Cervical steroid epidural injections Lumbar steroid epidural injections Spinal cord infarction due to vascular ischemia
7 MRI: 6 hours post 24hours
8 Variability of the infarct extent
9 A constant finding in permanent neurologic deficits complicating Lumbar ESI: spinal cord-conus medullaris vascular infarction
10 Arterial supply of the spinal cord One main anterior spinal artery Supplied by 5 to 7 Radiculomedullary arteries Two posterolateral arteries Anterior view posterior view
11 Arterial supply to the spinal cord 32 pairs of metameric radicular arteries 3 kind of metameric radicular arteries 5 to 7 Radiculo-medullary arteries, supplying the anterior and the 2 posterolateral spinal arteries Radiculo-pial arteries participating to the vasa corona, metameric distribution Plain metameric radicular arteries
12 Arterial supply of the spinal cord All the arterial supply to the spinal cord is provided by radiculo-medullary arteries penetrating the spinal canal through an intervertebral foramen
13 Arterial supply to the lumbosacral spinal cord and conus terminalis In 75% of cases the radiculomedullary artery (RMA) of the lumbosacral cord and conus terminalis (Adamkiewicz artery) arises between T9 and T12, and from the left in 69% of the cases. When the Adamkiewicz artery arises above T9, there is usually an additional lumbar or sacral RMA (Desproges- Gotteron artery).
14 Arterial supply to the lumbar spinal cord Consequences for lumbosacral steroid injections All the lumbar and anterior sacral intervertebral foramens, especially on the left side, may contain a radicular artery participating to the arterial supply of the conus terminalis and eventually to the crucial arcade
15 Arterial supply to the conus medullaris Anse anastomotique remarquable ( crucial arcade ), around the conus terminalis, similar to Willis polygon, which anastomoses the anterior with the 2 posterolateral spinal arteries
16 Mechanism of severe neurologic complications after steroid epidural injections Pathogenesis of the spinal cord infarction : Arterial rather than venous pathway Thrombosis Vasospasm Vascular compression Vascular embolization by steroid aggregates Tiso RL et al, Spine J (2004) Okabadejo GO et al, JBJS (2008)
17 Neurologic deficits after LESI Common clinical findings Indication of the LESI : sciatica or femoral pain (&LBP) due to degenerative disease Fluoroscopy or CT guidance After a few seconds/minutes: Intense abdominal &/or leg pain Sometimes malaise and flush Followed by rapid installation of the motor deficit
18 Neurologic deficits after LESI on a post-op spine 8 cases among 12 (66,6%) LESI on a post-op spine: only 8% of LESI in our institution Needle approach : 6 foraminal, 1 interlamar, 1 apophyseal joint injections Review of 6 cases : needle tip close to the scar 6/6 Intervertebral level: L1-2, L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1 Side: 7G, 1D Wybier M et al, Eur Radiol 2010

31 Normal arteriovenous anastomoses Nerve roots receive en arterial supply from both ends through longitudinal peri- and intraradicular arteries that anastomose in the midsections of the radicular fascicules. Numerous and relatively large normal arteriovenous anastomoses throughout the length of each root protect the functionnal integrity of the radicualr circulation in the event of focal compressions Role of epidural and radicular veins in chronic back pain and radiculopathy.
