Spinal Manifestations of Neurofibromatosis: an Update

Background and Aim: Neurofibromatosis-1(NF-1) is a common genetic condition in children. It is becoming increasingly recognized that in neurofibromatosis, there might be anomalous development of bone with or without any local anomaly of neuro-ectodermal basis. This review was conducted to highlight the different features of spinal disorders in this congenital disease. Methods and Materials: Di...

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Multiple Sclerosis and Spinal Cord Injury

Since 1973, spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has been reported to modulate abnormal motor functions such as spasticity, weakness, ataxia, athetosis, neurogenic bladder, dysarthria, dystonia and torticollis. As reported in 39 papers, improved neurological functions did occur in 45 to 64% of 1,008 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), spinal cord injury (SCI), cerebral palsy and other dystonic and ...
