Abstract (original English)

The authors reported an early case of cauda equina syndrome after hemilaminectomy and discectomy for lumbar disc herniation. CT-scan revealed the migration of the free fat graft used for preventing peridural scar formation. Removal of the graft resulted in total patient's recovery.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • Without an adequate control group, treatment effects cannot be separated from other factors.

Evidence level

Early human evidence such as case series or small samples is exploring possible benefits.
