A 53-year-old @entity1 had chronic low back and leg @entity158 for four years without any history of @entity130 or neurological manifestations. There was a reduction in symptoms after a lumbar epidural block. Two hours later after the procedure, the @entity1 complained of perineal @entity1183 and @entity425 . The neurological evaluation revealed @entity1109 in the saddle area and the posterior aspect of the leg. The deep-tendon reflexes were decreased in the leg. The @entity1 was unable to urinate. The MRI revealed a @entity808 at the S3 level of the sacral spine with cauda equina compression. The @entity1 's symptoms improved slightly over the next few hours. The @entity1 had a gradual return of motor function and could feel the Foley catheter. All of the symptoms completely resolved over the next nine hours and the @entity1 was discharged to home once completely recovered. This case illustrates the importance of clinical examination and continued vigilance for evaluation of @entity16 after epidural injections.
