Background: Lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) is performed widely since it reduces local recurrence. However, there are some disadvantages to LLND, including technical difficulties and association with postoperative urinary dysfunction. Procedures for LARC have also become more minimally invasive: laparoscopic surgery (LS) has become more common, and use of robot-assisted LS (RALS) is increasing.

We present the case of a 10-year-old male with a year-long history of low back pain, constipation, and difficulty in urination. MRI revealed an intradural extramedullary lesion at L5-S1, initially suspected to be a schwannoma or neurofibroma.

Introduction: Primary bladder neck obstruction (BNO) occurs when the bladder neck fails to open during voiding, causing urinary symptoms despite no anatomic obstruction.

Another etiology can incuded increased sympathetic tone secondary to anxiety or stress conditons.
