Practicing lateral cervical puncture for myelography.
The result of the recent survey regarding cervical myelography by using a C1–2 puncture published by Yousem and Gujar is an important contribution to the neuroradiologic practice. The authors’ excellent work demonstrates the rationale in an effort to maintain the existing skills, even requiring certain skills. For a long time, we have practiced the lateral cervical approach with intrathecal pun...
متن کاملLateral C2--C3 subarachnoid puncture for metrizamide myelography or cisternography.
Metrizamide is useful for evaluating both posterior fossa and the cervical spinal canal [1, 2]. Because the contrast material is diluted by spinal fluid enroute from the lumbar region to the cervical spinal canal, the C1-C2 puncture technique has been advocated as the most suitable approach for instillation of contrast material [3]. The procedure is safe and without great technical difficulties...
متن کاملAccidental spinal cord injection of contrast material during cervical myelography with lateral C1-C2 puncture.
A 64-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with slowly increasing paresis of the extremities. Because an intramedullar tumor was suspected, cervical myelography with lateral puncture of C1-C2 was performed. A 22-gauge needle was used, and normal return of clear, colorless spinal fluid was seen. During the uneventful injection of Omnipaque (iohexol, 240 mg I/ml), a longitudinal stripe of c...
متن کاملComparison between Iodixanol and Iohexol for Cervical Myelography in Cat
Objective- To evaluate and compare the radiographic efficacy and safety of a non-ionic dimeric and isotonic iodinated contrast medium, iodixanol (320 mgI/ml) and a non-ionic monomer and hypertonic contrast medium, iohexol (300 mgI/ml) in feline cervical myelography. Design- Experimental study Animals- Five adult healthy cats. Procedures- Iodixanol and iohexol were injected into the cerebello...
متن کاملIohexol for cervical myelography via C1-C2 puncture: study of efficacy and adverse reactions.
Cervical myelography with iohexol via C1-C2 puncture was performed in 30 patients in two medical centers using a concentration of 240 mg l/ml. The study demonstrated iohexol to be a safe contrast medium without significant changes in neurologic and physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram, or hematologic or blood chemistry parameters. Fifteen patients had electroencephalograms (EEGs...
