LYMPHOMAS OF SPINAL EPIDURAL SPACE

Archives of Surgery, 1954
INVASION of the spinal epidural space by lymphoblastic tissue is an infrequent complication of Hodgkin's disease or lymphosarcomatosis. Signs and symptoms of involvement of the central nervous system in lymphoblastic disease are not unusual but actual invasion of the brain and spinal cord is extremely rare.

Ultrasound Imaging of the Thoracic Epidural Space

Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2002
In thoracic epidural anesthesia, the "loss of resistance" technique is the standard technique for the identification of the epidural space (EDS), the feedback to the operator is often solely tactile. Our aim was to establish ultrasonography for the prepuncture demonstration of the anatomic structures surrounding the thoracic EDS and to evaluate its ...

Quantitative Anatomy of the Thoracolumbar Epidural Space

Neurosurgery, 1985
Abstract Quantitative measurements of the epidural space between T-7 and L-4 were made in the sagittal and coronal planes utilizing x-ray films made after the injection of iodized oil into the epidural space in the low thoracic and upper lumbar areas. These data reveal a 1-mm ventral epidural space and a 2-mm lateral epidural space, with

Anatomy of the epidural space

Current Anaesthesia & Critical Care, 1999
The epidural space exists between the periosteal lining of the vertebral canal and the dural sac. Generally it is not an empty cavity but contains fat, blood vessels, fibrous tissue, nerve roots and other various structures, though at some levels it exists as a ‘potential space' (minimal content but ability to accommodate large volumes).

Spine and Epidural Space

2018
Neurologic function becomes extremely vulnerable as it funnels through the slender spinal cord and nerve roots. Thus, neoplastic and nonneoplastic processes of the spine and epidural space often give rise to severe backache, radiculopathy, sensorimotor disturbances, loss of sphincter control, and even paraplegia.

Anatomy of the epidural space

Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2012
Abstract Despite the importance of anatomical knowledge in the safe and effective conduct of thoraco-lumbar epidural anaesthesia there are widespread misunderstandings about the detailed anatomy of this complex region. Current textbooks and teaching continue to propagate misleading information.
