Approach to Myelopathy

Continuum, 2018
Myelopathy is commonly encountered in clinical practice and is associated with a large number of causes. This article reviews the anatomy of the spinal cord and discusses how the clinical findings, time course, and radiographic patterns can help to identify the causes of myelopathy.Imaging observations such as MRI "pancake" gadolinium enhancement ...

Infectious Myelopathies

Seminars in Neurology, 2021
AbstractIn the setting of both globalization and increasing use of immunosuppressive therapy, infectious myelopathies are an important cause of morbidity worldwide. Clinical spinal cord syndromes related to infection are varied, including transverse myelitis, acute flaccid paralysis related to anterior horn cell involvement, spinal cord compression ...

Radiation Myelopathy

European Neurology, 2008
Irradiation treatment in the cervical and thoracic areas is sometimes accompanied by the development of neurological symptoms and signs. The clinical course and the diagnostic difficulties encountered in such cases are illustrated in four patients. Special attention is given to those rare post-mastectomy cases.

Postshunt Myelopathy

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1991
Postshunt myelopathy is a rare, severely debilitating syndrome complicating portosystemic shunts that is characterized by spastic paraparesis. In this report we describe a 39-year-old woman with alcoholic liver disease and postshunt myelopathy resulting in an inability to walk.

Ischemic Myelopathy

Angiology, 1979
Ischemic myelopathy and Angiology of the Spinal Cord have recently drawn the attention of both paraplegists and angiologists, and their details are now fairly well known. Ischemic myelopathies increased with the rise of vascular surgery, but the means of prevention have been carefully studied and the incidence is now decreasing.

Infectious Myelopathies

Continuum
Infectious myelopathy of any stage and etiology carries the potential for significant morbidity and mortality. This article details the clinical presentation, risk factors, and key diagnostic components of infectious myelopathies with the goal of improving the recognition of these disorders and guiding subsequent management.Despite our era of advanced ...

Radiation myelopathy

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1998
Radiation myelitis has long been recognised as a sinister consequence of spinal irradiation and has limited the acceptable dose of therapeutic radiation to the cord. Over the past 10 years, the pathogenesis has been increasingly understood through the use of animal models.

Genetic Myelopathies

Continuum
This article provides an overview of genetic myelopathies, a diverse group of inherited, degenerative conditions that may be broadly categorized as motor neuron disorders, disorders of spinocerebellar degeneration, leukodystrophies, and hereditary spastic paraplegia.

Neoplastic Myelopathy

Seminars in Neurology, 2012
Neoplastic myelopathy may be due to external compression or to direct intraparenchymal involvement of the spinal cord. In this review, the authors discuss the most common cause for compressive neoplastic myelopathy, metastatic disease. They also review other compressive lesions and discuss primary intramedullary spinal tumors.

Neoplastic Myelopathies

Continuum, 2015
Involvement of the spinal cord by cancer is seen in 5% to 10% of all patients with cancer. This article reviews disorders in which cancer results in spinal cord dysfunction.Involvement of the spinal cord in patients with cancer occurs by either direct or indirect mechanisms.
