The Change of Spinal Canal According to Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion in Degenerative Spondylolisthesis: A Prospective Observational Study [PDF]

open access: yesNeurospine, 2022
Objective Oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) involves inserting large cages into the interbody disc space. This expands the spinal canal and neural foramen by stretching the ligament flavum and releasing the facet joint, resulting in indirect neural ...

Changes in neurological and pathological outcomes in a modified rat spinal cord injury model with closed canal

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2020
Most animal spinal cord injury models involve a laminectomy, such as the weight drop model or the transection model. However, in clinical practice, many patients undergo spinal cord injury while maintaining a relatively complete spinal canal.

Spinal Canal Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2001
AbstractThis unit presents a basic protocol for fast spin echo sequences for imaging to diagnose stenosis of the spinal canal. Spinal stenosis is defined generally as a narrowing of one or more of the following: the central canal, foramina, and lateral recesses of the lumbar spine.

Thoracoscopically Assisted Vertebral Reconstruction Simultaneously with Percutaneous Pedicle Screws Fixation for Management of Thoracic and Thoracolumbar Spinal Fractures.

open access: yesEgyptian Spine Journal, 2018
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

Intradural angiomatous meningioma arising from a thoracic nerve root [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Spinal intradural meningiomas that arise purely from a nerve root without dural attachments are extremely rare. Spinal meningiomas arise from arachnoidal cap cells in the spinal canal, and growth of these tumors exerts pressure on the spinal ...
