[Cervical vertebrae replacements].
Rozhledy v chirurgii : mesicnik Ceskoslovenske chirurgicke spolecnosti, 1989The authors analyze caused and indications for prostheses of bodies of cervical vertebrae. As caused they mention bone tumours, metastases, benign bone tumours and injuries. For operation they indicate patients with neurological symptoms and instability of the spine. For prostheses they use bone grafts from the blade of the ilium. They insert the graft

Benign osteoblastoma of the cervical vertebra
Surgical Neurology, 1987A 31-year-old patient, with a relatively uncommon benign osteoblastoma of the sixth cervical vertebra, exhibited symptoms of spinal cord compression. Computed tomographic metrizamide myelography was very useful in the preoperative planning, particularly for locating the position and extent of the lesion.

Cervical vertebrae maturation method: Poor reproducibility
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2009The cervical vertebrae maturation (CVM) method has been advocated as a predictor of peak mandibular growth. This method relies on the clinician's ability to determine the stage of maturation of the vertebrae. Careful examination of reports of this technique shows methodologic flaws that can lead to inflated levels of reproducibility.

Skeletal maturation evaluation using cervical vertebrae
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1995Lateral cephalometric and left hand-wrist radiographs from the Bolton-Brush Growth Center at Case Western Reserve University were reviewed a posteriori to develop a cervical vertebrae maturation index (CVMI). By using the lateral profiles of the second, third and fourth cervical vertebrae, it was possible to develop a reliable ranking of patients ...

Twenty-nine patients had single level fusion, one had two-level fusion, and the remaining two had multilevel fusion. Eighteen patients had cervical myelopathy; five of these had related trauma and 13 had no history of trauma.

[Cervical tinnitus after cervical vertebrae treatment].
Laryngo- rhino- otologie, 1991There is a wide variety in the discussions on cervical tinnitus as a possibility of hearing disorders. Hearing loss at low frequencies and low frequent tinnitus are typical signs in this context. It is important to remember that these complaints occur not only with pathological changes in the cervical spine, but possibly also after treatment in this ...

Injuries to pathologically changed cervical vertebrae
The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1985Three cases of fatal injuries to the upper cervical spinal cord and underlying cervical spine pathology are presented. It is stressed that the slightest suspicion concerning injuries to the upper part of the neck must lead not only to microscopic examination of the cervical spinal cord and medulla oblongata, but also to careful preparation (or ...

CERVICAL VERTEBRA STABILISATION
1996The invention relates to a device for stabilising the cervical vertebrae having a basic body (1) with a plate-shaped section with a drilling running perpendicularly to the plane of the plate and a bone screw (3) with a threaded section (4) and a head (5), in which the threaded section (4) extends through the drilling.
