When a herniated disc masquerades as a tumor: Latero-posterior epidural migration mimicking cauda equina neoplasm—A case report and review [PDF]
Herniated discs are often in contact with the intervertebral disc and are located in the intraspinal extradural space. However, in rare cases, disc fragments may migrate into the posterior epidural space or even become intradural, potentially leading to ...

Intervertebral disc degeneration and vertebral end plate damage in acute lumbar disc herniation
Background: Although microtrauma, gene polymorphisms, or subclinical infection could initiate lumbar disc herniation (LDH), the final pathway culminating in herniation can involve two possible trajectories—degeneration of nucleus pulposus or vertebral ...

Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of thoracolumbar intervertenral disk extrusions and protrusions in large breed dogs [PDF]
It has recently been shown that the fat-derived hormone adiponectin has the ability to decrease hyperglycemia and to reverse insulin resistance. However, bacterially produced full-length adiponectin is functionally inactive. Here, we show that endogenous
