The Occupancy of the Components in the Cervical Spine and Their Changes with Extension and Flexion
Study Design Retrospective case series. Objectives The kinematics of the cervical spine has been investigated by many researchers. However, the occupancy of the disk bulges, spinal cord, ligamentum flavum, and the rest of the canal as well as the changes of these structures with motion have not yet been investigated. The goal of this study is to investigate these dynamic changes. Methods The ki...
متن کاملMotion compensation associated with single-level cervical fusion: where does the lost motion go?
STUDY DESIGN Seven adult human cadaveric cervical spines (C2-T1) were biomechanically tested in a programmable testing device. OBJECTIVE Compare the effects of incremental single-level fusion at different levels of the cervical spine. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Clinical studies have reported degenerative symptomatic disc disease at disc levels adjacent to fusion. No known study has attempte...
متن کاملThe Study of Cobb Angular Velocity in Cervical Spine during Dynamic Extension-Flexion.
STUDY DESIGN A kinematic study of cervical spine. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to confirm the interesting manifestation observed in the dynamic images of the cervical spine movement from full-extension to full-flexion. To further explore the fine motion of total process of cervical spine movement with the new concept of Cobb angular velocity (CAV). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Tradition...
متن کاملMotion analysis of cervical vertebrae during whiplash loading.
STUDY DESIGN The motion of each cervical vertebra during simulated rear-end car collisions was analyzed. OBJECTIVES To clarify the mechanism of zygapophysial joint injury during whiplash loading. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The zygapophysial joint is the suspected origin of neck pain after rear-end car collision. However, no studies have been conducted on the mechanisms of zygapophysial join...
متن کاملThe Evaluation and Observation of “Hidden” Hypertrophy of Cervical Ligamentum Flavum, Cervical Canal, and Related Factors Using Kinetic Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Objective The objective was to measure the change of flavum ligament diameter during positional changes of the cervical spine using kinetic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to examine the correlational diameter changes of the flavum ligament, disk bulging, and the spinal canal from extension to flexion positions. Methods One hundred eight-nine patien...
