Spinal cord tethering syndrome, also known as spinal cord tethering, is usually seen in patients with spina bifida, but it can also occur after spinal surgery or spinal trauma that causes fibrous adhesions in the tissue. Its main pathological manifestations: theoretically, the terminal filament is a type of spinal nerve that is free in the spinal cord, but when various factors, such as inflammation and trauma, cause the nerve to be fixed in an abnormal part of the spinal cord, certain activities will cause the overall spinal cord nerve to be strained, thus causing various clinical symptoms. The clinical symptoms may vary depending on the degree of the disease, starting from weakness and numbness of the lower limbs, or mild muscle atrophy, pain in the lower back, and some cases of urinary incontinence or loss of urine, to paralysis of the lower limbs, marked loss of sensation, coldness in the distal limbs, or even complete paraplegia and incontinence of urine and stool. If this condition exists, you must go to the hospital for a timely examination and the earlier the treatment, the better. At present, the main focus is on surgery to loosen the corresponding tissues and release the tether.
