Acute 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 کاملRespiratory motor outputs following unilateral midcervical spinal cord injury in the adult rat.
The present study was designed to investigate the impact of midcervical spinal cord injury on respiratory outputs and compare respiratory recovery following high- vs. midcervical spinal injury. A unilateral hemisection (Hx) in the spinal cord at C2 or C4 was performed in adult rats. Respiratory behaviors of unanesthetized animals were measured at normoxic baseline and hypercapnia by whole body ...
متن کاملClinical assessment following acute cervical spinal cord injury.
A cute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) affects 12 000 to 15 000 people in North America each year. The functional consequences of an acute SCI are variable; therefore, the initial clinical presentation of patients with an acute SCI is a key factor in determining triage, defining therapy, and predicting prognosis. The patient must be assessed with an accurate, consistent, and reproducible neu...
متن کاملFatal hyperthermia following acute cervical spinal cord and head injury
A 22-year-old man with schizophrenia presented with cervical spine damage caused by a crush injury. Upon admission, we performed anterior cervical decompression and fusion of vertebrae C5, C6, and C7. The patient experienced treatment-resistant hyperthermia with a body temperature >40°C. He did not show any evidence of drug use that might induce malignant hyperthermia. He also did not exhibit s...
متن کاملPlasticity in sublesionally located neurons following spinal cord injury.
Neuronal plasticity has been traditionally associated with learning and memory processes in the hippocampal regions of the brain. It is now generally accepted that plasticity phenomena are also associated with other kinds of cellular changes and modifications occurring in all areas of the CNS after injury or intense neuronal activity. For instance, spinal cord injuries have been associated with...
