When someone’s experiencing cauda equina syndrome, having that condition addressed surgically in order to decompress or
remove the pressure from the kataquinina nerve bundle is crucial. Most of the medical literature
generally speaking states that once a patient enters into kata aquinao syndrome what we call incomplete they
have about 24 to 48 hours to undergo a decompression surgery that’s to provide the most optimum outcome for restor
restoring neurological function to their nerves. If the surgery falls outside of that window, then the compression on the
nerves has been allowed to go on for too long and that begins to cause really permanent issues that can’t be reversed.
And so it’s really crucial that the condition be recognized quickly and then surgically addressed as quickly as possible.
