Degenerative intraspinal cyst of the cervical spine
We describe two cases of degenerative intraspinal cyst of the cervical spine that caused a gradually progressive myelopathy. One case had a cyst that arose from the facet joint and the other case had a cyst that formed in the ligamentum flavum. The symptoms improved immediately after posterior decompression by cystectomy with laminoplasty.
متن کاملUnstable degenerative spondylolisthesis of the cervical spine.
Unstable degenerative spondylolisthesis of the cervical spine is very rare. Slip usually occurs at the C3 on C4 or C4 on C5 levels, immediately above a stiff lower cervical spine. There are two clinical patterns: that with neurological involvement causing cervicobrachial pain or myelopathy and that with neck pain alone. The diagnosis can be made by flexion/extension radiography. All of our eigh...
متن کاملThe Use of Artificial Disc Replacement in Degenerative Conditions of the Cervical Spine
Purpose of Review Anterior cervical fusion, the gold standard for reconstruction following anterior cervical decompression, is both safe and effective but potentially accelerates degeneration of adjacent segments. Artificial disk replacement is an emerging technology with the potential to maintain motion and decrease adjacent segment degeneration. Several devices are currently in pilot studies ...
متن کاملAnterior Cervical Spine Surgery for Degenerative Disease: A Review
Anterior cervical spine surgery is an established surgical intervention for cervical degenerative disease and high success rate with excellent long-term outcomes have been reported. However, indications of surgical procedures for certain conditions are still controversial and severe complications to cause neurological dysfunction or deaths may occur. This review is focused mainly on five widely...
متن کاملDynamic stabilization versus fusion for treatment of degenerative spine conditions
STUDY DESIGN Comparative effectiveness review. STUDY RATIONALE Spinal fusion is believed to accelerate the degeneration of the vertebral segment above or below the fusion site, a condition called adjacent segment disease (ASD). The premise of dynamic stabilization is that motion preservation allows for less loading on the discs and facet joints at the adjacent, non-fused segments. In theory...
