Percutaneous balloon compression for trigeminal neuralgia.
Percutaneous balloon compression is a simple and effective treatment for trigeminal neuralgia. It is especially useful in patients with first-division pain because it does not injure the myelinated fibers that mediate the blink reflex. It is most helpful in patients with pain that has spread across multiple divisions because it does not require multiple lesions. It is also helpful in patients w...
متن کاملLumbar vertebral reformation after traumatic compression fracture.
Received March 5, 1984; accepted May 18, 1984. On physical examination, there was tenderness in the L 1 area. Neurologic examination was normal. Initial radiographs (fig. 1A) of the lumbosacral spine revealed a compression fracture of the L 1 vertebra; subsequent myelography demonstrated an extradural block at the same level. At surgery, a standard posterior exposure of the dorsal arches of T10...
متن کاملOdontoid process pathologic fracture in spinal tuberculosis.
Craniovertebral junction tuberculosis is a rare lesion in which treatment remains controversial. Options range from conservative treatment to surgery, independently of any associated neurological threat. We here report the first case of pathologic odontoid fracture in a context of spinal tuberculosis, complicated by unusual neurological evolution. The patient presented with non-contiguous multi...
متن کاملTraumatic odontoid process synchondrosis fracture with atlantoaxial instability in a calf: clinical presentation and imaging findings
A 6-week-old female Simmental calf was evaluated for acute non-ambulatory tetraparesis. Physical and laboratory examinations revealed no clinically relevant abnormalities. Neurological findings were consistent with acute, progressive and painful cervical myelopathy. Radiographs displayed a fractured odontoid process (dens axis) and vertebral step misalignment at the fracture site. A traumatic o...
متن کاملHydatid Disease of the Cervical Spine Mimicking Traumatic Burst Fracture
Background & Importance: Hydatid disease of the spine is rare but constitutes approximately 50% of bone involvement cases in human hydatidosis. It is a severe condition associated with a high rate of morbidity, disability and mortality. Case Presentation: In the present paper, we report an intriguing case of cervical spinal hydatid disease mimicking traumatic burst fracture. Con...
