Traumatic Cervical Nerve Root Avulsion with Pseudomeningocele Formation
Cervical nerve root avulsion is a well-documented result of motor vehicle collision (MVC), especially when occurring at high velocities. These avulsions are commonly traction injuries of nerve roots that may be accompanied by a tear in the meninges through the vertebral foramina with associated collections of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), thereby resulting in a pseudomeningocele. We present a case...
متن کاملTraumatic avulsion of the optic nerve.
Avulsion of the optic nerve is an infrequent traumatic event which results in a permanent and usually devastating loss of vision. We present two cases which highlight the salient features of partial and complete optic nerve avulsion. The clinical findings, including the results of B-scan ultrasonography, fluorescein angiography, and computed tomography (CT) are discussed. In addition, the past ...
متن کاملBilateral traumatic avulsion of abducens nerve.
DISCUSSION Cavernoma is a benign tumor and it is considered a dysplasia of the vessels-forming mesoderm. Cavernous hemangiomas in the vertebral, extradural, intradural extramedullary and intramedullary spaces are responsible for 3 to 16% of spinal vascular anomalies. Extradural cavernous hemangioma represent 4% of all spinal epidural lesions. Modern diagnostic imaging techniques are increasing ...
متن کاملPost-traumatic intradiploic pseudomeningocele.
We report a four year old boy who was detected to have an occipital intradiploic pseudomeningocele three years following a traumatic skull fracture, and which was managed by ventriculo-peritoneal shunt placement. Traumatic intradiploic pseudomeningoceles behave differently from traditional growing skull fractures and may require individualized management decisions.
متن کاملSpinal nerve root herniation into a pseudomeningocele associated with lumbar spondylolysis: a case report.
A 38-year-old man presented with low back pain and sciatica on the left side. Magnetic resonance imaging showed spinal nerve root herniation into a pseudomeningocele associated with lumbar spondylolysis. After closure of the dural defect, the sciatic pain was relieved and subsequently the patient was able to return to work.
