Specialists are under threat of taking tunnel view: a case report

This report describes a case of spinal canal stenosis at L4-L5 level and urinary incontinence (UI). An elderly woman was referred to a pain clinic with persistent pain in low back and both lower limbs specially left leg. She  complained of UI since 2 months before in a progressive manner as well.  Because of progressive nature of her symptoms, physicians decided to refer  her for surgery promptly; however, her cardiologic consult was not  satisfactory, and surgery risk was reported significant. Physicians began  symptomatic therapy and unexpectedly most of her symptoms were  improved even her UI.
