APTA Member - Every spinal cord injury is different, so the surgeon must assess each situation and decide what type of surgery is necessary.
Finding statistical information isn't easy but i did find an article published in 2012 by the British Association of Spine Surgeons. It states that per every 1 million people there are approximately between 6-10 people with Cauda Equina Syndrome. In the UK there are currently approximately 40,000 people living with Spinal Cord Injuries 300,000 in the US We have a population of 63 million in the UK. The figures at least show that CES is a rare spinal condition compared to other Spinal Cord Injuries. I remember when i was first diagnosed with CES and looked for info on the net, it seemed to me that the condition was in fact very rare with only a few people suffering with it worldwide even. Now i find that isn't the case as the numbers are higher than i originally thought. The main problem i found was actually the lack of information about the condition. Information can be sought about the neurological nature of the condition but not necessarily the effects of it and the complications. There needs to be a source of information that helps sufferers out there and here at Inspired we are going to work hard to provide as much as is possible to find. Our CES forum will develop into an informative resource center which can be a reference point for all and our members imput, sharing of their experiences will be a vital part of this process. I think this site will be able to help people with CES like no other. Lara having with CES has been great for this site, not good for her, but you know what I mean. People with CES have been looking for a place just like this. I hope our numbers grow and people with fresh injury's have a place to get real info. I see this as the 1 site for CES info. My thanks go out to DJ and Lara for all they have done and are doing. Lara having with CES has been great for this site, not good for her, but you know what I mean.

And there are 300,000 folks with spinal injury. Doesn't that mean that somewhere near 1 in 10 have such an injury? I need to check my math! I also wonder if that figure includes all injury, including just herniated discs, with or without pain, and how many of those injuries are disabling. Often people can have herniated discs or degenerated discs and not even know it. It is normal for discs to deteriorate with age. And there are 300,000 folks with spinal injury.

Often people can have herniated discs or degenerated discs and not even know it. It is normal for discs to deteriorate with age. The most frequent injuries of the thoracolumbar region are to the conus medullaris and the cauda equina, particularly between T12 and L2. This says that 4 to 7 out of every 10,000 to 100,000 patients have it. Lara having with CES has been great for this site, not good for her, but you know what I mean.

I am shocked by how many are coming to the Facebook page, it might just be that folks just find out that there is information about a little known disability and they come to places like this one, and to the groups on Facebook. Together we are looking at the scant information about CES and trying to help one another.
