Introduction . Abnormal motion on flexion-extension radiographs is often used to indicate instability in the cervical spine. This method is also used to evaluate healing after fusions. Correct interpretation of these radiographs is important, because an unhealed fusion is potentially unstable and eventually a source of pain. The true measuring errors by using conventional radiography to examine...

متن کاملDysphagia secondary to anterior cervical spine osteophytes
A 40-year-old woman, previously healthy, presented with a 6-month history of foreign body sensation of the pharynx with recent progressive dysphagia when swallowing both solid and liquid foods.

متن کاملArthroscopic anterior diskectomy of the cervical spine.
We describe a minimally invasive arthroscopic technique for anterior diskectomy of the cervical spine. Fingertip pressure is applied between the carotid sheath laterally and the pharynx medially. The trachea and esophagus are displaced to the contralateral side. The disk level, soft-tissue thickness, and midline are verified with image intensification. A spinal needle is inserted through the so...
