초록

Althogh spinal epidural lipomatosis is relatively rare, it is a widely recognized complication of excess exogenous glucocorticoids. We report 4 cases of epidural lipomatosis. None of the patients had definitive history of steroid treatment, obesity, or diabetes mellitus, but all had sciatica and radiating pain. In all cases, the authors removed excess amount of epidural fat with surgery after which significant improvement of symptoms was noted.
