Background Data: Thoracic and thoracolumbar fractures are commonly provoked by axial compression which disrupts the anterior column. In this setting, posterior stabilization using pedicle screws alone may lead to delayed kyphosis and hardware failure due

Comparison between the coronal diameters of the cervical spinal canal and spinal cord measured using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in Korean patients [PDF]
Background If the proportion of the spinal cord in the epidural space can be determined under C-arm fluoroscopy during cervical epidural block, a safe entry point for the epidural needle can be established.

Pneumorrhachis of the entire spinal canal [PDF]
Pneumorrhachis (PR)—the curious phenomenon of intraspinal air—is an exceptional radiographic finding. In this report the first case of PR of the entire spine is presented. A 19 year old man with a history of diabetes mellitus and bronchial asthma was admitted because of cough, fever, nausea, and vomiting for 3 days. Physical examination and laboratory
