Cervical vertebrae measurements in syringomyelia
Clinical Radiology, 1977Lateral X-rays of the cervical spine taken under standard conditions in 69 cases of syringomyelia have been measured to assess the relative sizes of the canals and bodies. One hundred and five cases without cervical spine abnormality provided controls. The expected expansion has been observed in males from C5 to C7 and in females from C3 to C7.

A Patient with Fractured Cervical Vertebrae
The American Journal of Nursing, 1965The water in the swimming pool was too shallow for a man of twenty to dive into. Perhaps Mr. A. should have known this, but he didn't. He dove, hit the concrete floor of the pool with his head, felt a sudden "crunching" sensation in his neck. He remained conscious, however, and was able to swim to the edge of the pool where he needed help in climbing ...

Stresses around cervical vertebrae
Computers & Structures, 1989Summary: This paper concerns the analysis of stress distribution around the cervical vertebrae. The vertebrae are considered to be rigid because the moduli of elasticity of the vertebrae are very large in comparison with those of cartilages, ligaments, intervertebral discs, articular capsules and anterior atlanto-occipital membrane.

Metal prosthesis of the cervical vertebra
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1975✓ The authors successfully used a newly-devised metal prosthesis anchored by acrylic cement in four patients with cervical spinal tumor. Two of these patients suffered incomplete quadriplegia due to epidural infiltration of the tumor and required laminectomy.

[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.
