Decompression with or without Stabilisation in Cervical Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament: A Case Series of Seven Cases [PDF]
Cervical Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament (OPLL) is a common cause of cervical myelopathy requiring surgical intervention. Options include posterior decompression alone or decompression combined with stabilisation.

Surgical Escharotomy and Decompressive Therapies in Burns
Abstract Early recognition of the need for escharotomy and other decompressive therapies is imperative for experienced burn providers, as to avoid reversible tissue ischemia and necrosis. With full-thickness burns, the eschar that develops is largely noncompliant.

The utility of ultrasound for surgical spinal decompression
Surgery is routinely performed to decompress the spinal cord. While a number of imaging modalities are currently used in the perioperative setting of surgical spinal cord decompression including computed tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound (US) usage is relatively new.

Stenosis of the vertebral canal of the lumbar spine [PDF]
The overall incidence of symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis is about 1015% among persons aged 5070 years. Due to the aging of the population, the incidence of this pathology is constantly growing. The desire of older patients to preserve their quality of

Neurological recovery after early versus delayed surgical decompression for acute traumatic spinal cord injury [PDF]
Aims The aim of this study was to determine whether early surgical treatment results in better neurological recovery 12 months after injury than late surgical treatment in patients with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI).

Surgical Freedom Evaluation During Optic Nerve Decompression. Laboratory Investigation [PDF]
Background and objective: Various surgical routes have been used to decompress the intracanalicular optic nerve. Historically, a transcranial corridor was used, but more recently, ventral approaches (endonasal and/or transorbital) have been proposed ...

A comparison of proptosis reduction with teprotumumab versus surgical decompression based on fat-to-muscle ratio in thyroid eye disease [PDF]
PurposeTo explore if orbital fat-to-muscle ratio (FMR) is predictive of whether surgical decompression or teprotumumab leads to greater proptosis reduction in thyroid eye disease (TED).MethodsA single-center retrospective cohort study comparing surgical ...

The timing of surgical decompression for spinal cord injury [PDF]
Research into the pathophysiological mechanisms of spinal cord injury (SCI) has resulted in a classification scheme of primary and secondary injury. Primary injury refers to the destructive nature of the initial impact and the subsequent shearing, penetrating, and compressive forces that injure the delicate neural tissue.
