Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
Neurologic Clinics, 2013The differential of cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is broad and includes multiple conditions that can cause and mimic myelopathy. In adults older than 55 years of age, CSM is the most common cause of myelopathy. This article summarizes the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, diagnostic evaluation, and natural history ...

Prevalence of cervical spondylotic myelopathy
European Spine Journal, 2013Patients with signs and/or symptoms of cervical spondylotic myelopathy are frequently encountered in spinal practice. Exact numbers of prevalence or incidence are not known.A literature search was performed by an experienced librarian in Pubmed, Embase, and Scopus.

Cervical and Thoracic Spondylotic Myelopathies
Seminars in Neurology, 2021AbstractSpondylotic myelopathies are among the most common disorders of the spine, yet the clinical and treatment approach is far from standardized. This article discusses our current understanding of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical assessment, natural history, and treatment options in degenerative myelopathies of the cervical and thoracic ...

Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
The Neurologist, 2010Cervical spondylosis is part of the aging process and affects most people if they live long enough. Degenerative changes affecting the intervertebral disks, vertebrae, facet joints, and ligamentous structures encroach on the cervical spinal canal and damage the spinal cord, especially in patients with a congenitally small cervical canal.

Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
Clinical Spine Surgery: A Spine Publication, 2016Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a degenerative disease that represents the most common spinal cord disorder in adults. The natural history of the disease can be insidious, and patients often develop debilitating spasticity and weakness. Diagnosis includes a combination of physical examination and various imaging modalities.

Cervical spondylotic myelopathy and radiculopathy
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1987A review of the extensive literature on cervical spondylotic myelopathy and radiculopathy shows that the clinical picture and pathology are well defined, and the complex pathogenetic mechanisms are better understood. With recent advances in investigative procedures: computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and somatosensory evoked potentials ...

The epidemiology of cervical spondylotic myelopathy
Skeletal Radiology, 2012This is an observational study looking at the epidemiology of cervical spondylotic myelopathy of patients presenting to our hospital.The notes and MRI scans of 41 patients presenting to the Leicester General Hospital with a clinical diagnosis of cervical myelopathy between January 2004 and December 2008 were reviewed retrospectively.Cervical myelopathy

Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1995The inconsistent use of nomenclature to describe this entity has plagued both the reporting and understanding of CSM. Progress has similarly been stifled by the waxing and waning of symptoms that so often accompany the clinical presentation of CSM. Surgical approaches have, therefore, been chosen in situations in which an optimal result may not be ...

Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
Spine, 1977Cervical spondylotic myelopathy is a disease entity which occurs as a complication of chronic degenerative changes in the cervical spine. A thesis is developed regarding its etiology and proposes that the symptoms and signs of the disease result from the interaction of critically large chondro ...

Cervical spondylotic myelopathy with syringomyelia
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 1996Syringomyelia may complicate cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). We describe a case of CSM with instability at C3/4 and a cervicothoracic syrinx which was demonstrated using magnetic resonance imaging. Decompression and stabilization, without drainage of the syrinx, were adequate surgical treatment.
