Surgical management of multilevel cervical spinal stenosis and spinal cord injury complicated by cervical spine fracture
BACKGROUND There are few reports regarding surgical management of multilevel cervical spinal stenosis with spinal cord injury. Our purpose is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of open-door expansive laminoplasty in combination with transpedicular screw fixation for the treatment of multilevel cervical spinal stenosis and spinal cord injury in the trauma population. METHODS This was a ret...
متن کاملAcute Hydrocephalus Following Cervical Spinal Cord Injury
We present a case of acute hydrocephalus secondary to cervical spinal cord injury in a patient with diffuse ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). A 75-year-old male patient visited the emergency department with tetraparesis and spinal shock. Imaging studies showed cervical spinal cord injury with hemorrhage and diffuse OPLL from C1 to C4. We performed decompressive laminec...
متن کاملAcute Mesenteric Ischemia
The patient's white blood cell (WBC) count was 17,000/μL (no left shift). Viral gastroenteritis was diagnosed by the ED physicians. Very mild right-sided weakness and occasional "pins and needles" sensations in the right leg were residual effects of a stroke the patient had suffered 9 years earlier.

متن کاملMesenteric ischemia: acute and chronic.
Acute mesenteric ischemia is a circulation-insufficiency event, occurring either suddenly or rapidly over a few weeks, that deprives one or several abdominal organs of adequate respiration to meet metabolic demands. Although mesenteric ischemia occurs infrequently, the mortality rate is from 60 to 100%, depending on the source of obstruction. The risk of atherosclerotic-related mesenteric occlu...
