Magnetic resonance imaging features of canine intradural/extramedullary intervertebral disc extrusion in seven cases

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Intervertebral disc disease, including intervertebral disc extrusions and protrusions, is the most common spinal cord disorder in dogs. Atypical and uncommon intervertebral disc herniations include intradural/intramedullary disc extrusion, intervertebral

Effect of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty on the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration: a retrospective cohort study

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background The effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) or rather polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) on adjacent intervertebral discs is still controversial. The evidence from experimental study to clinical study presents bipolar conclusions.

A case report of vacuum sign surgery for the inner recess of lumbar spinal canal

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery
The formation of intervertebral disc vacuum sign can be observed in late stage degenerative changes of the lumbar disc. In 1937, Magnusson first proposed intervertebral disc vacuum sign, which refers to the accumulation of gas caused by disc dehydration ...

Development of a whole organ culture model for intervertebral disc disease

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2016
Background/Objective: Whole organ in vitro intervertebral disc models have been associated with poor maintenance of cell viability. No previous studies have used a rotating wall vessel bioreactor for intervertebral disc explants culture.
