Predictors of symptomatic myelopathy in degenerative cervical spinal cord compression
OBJECTIVES To update a previously established list of predictors for neurological cervical cord dysfunction in nonmyelopathic degenerative cervical cord compression (NMDCCC). MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective observational follow-up study was performed in a cohort of 112 consecutive NMDCCC subjects (55 women and 57 men; median age 59 years, range 40-79 years), either asymptomatic (40 subject...
متن کاملSolitary osteochondroma of the cervical spine causing spinal cord compression.
Osteochondromas are common benign tumours of bone that often occur in the metaphysodiaphyseal parts of long bones. They rarely occur in the spine. We present a case of solitary osteochondroma arising from the C-1 vertebral lamina, causing neurological symptoms. A 46-year-old man presented to our institution, complaining of pain and numbness originating from his neck and extending down to his le...
متن کاملFat graft migration causing recurrent cervical cord compression.
AIM Fat graft migration following spinal cord surgery is an uncommon problem. Only few cases of fat graft migration causing cauda equine syndrome, recurrent sciatica, and root compression following lumbar spine surgery have been reported. We report a case of fat graft migration causing symptomatic cervical cord compression. MATERIAL AND METHODS A 45-years-old male with cervica...
متن کاملOssified Ligamentum Flavum causing Cervical Myelopathy
Ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) causing compressive cervical myelopathy or radiculopathy is rare. A 50-year-old male was admitted for progressive hypesthesia and paresthesia of both hands and a gradually worsening gait. MRI and CT scans demonstrated ossification of the left ligamentum flavum with dural sac and cord compression at the C5-6 level. The ossified ligamentum flavum was re...
متن کاملRadiculopathy after laminectomy for cervical compression myelopathy.
Postoperative radiculopathy is a complication of posterior cervical decompression associated with tethering of the nerve root. We reviewed retrospectively 287 consecutive patients with cervical compression myelopathy who had been treated by multilevel cervical laminectomy and identified 37 (12.9%) with postoperative radiculopathy. There were 27 men and ten women with a mean age of 56 years at t...
