Paragangliomas of the spinal canal
Surgical Neurology, 1983Paragangliomas are tumors arising in the paraganglia and rarely occur in the spinal canal. In the literature, 11 such cases have been reported. We present 7 additional cases, 3 of which were epidural in location in contrast to previously described intradural cases. The problems of histological diagnosis of these tumors are discussed.

Cross-sectional spinal imaging is common, and extraspinal findings are often incidentally identified during interpretation. Although some of these findings may cause symptoms that mimic a spinal disorder, the majority are entirely asymptomatic and incidental.

Migration of a bullet in the spinal canal
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2007Migration of a bullet within the spinal canal after gunshot injury is rare. We report here the case of a penetrating gunshot injury of the lumbar spine at L3 with migration of the bullet within the spinal canal S2. The patient had marked paraparesis (proximal 1/5, distal 0/5 muscle strength) and anaesthesia at L3 and below, and had a hypocompliant ...

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 1998
SummarySpinal canal endoscopy (epiduroscopy) is a new minimally invasive technology that may prove to have wide application in management of spinal canal disease. This paper describes a simple and atraumatic method for the visualisation of the spinal canal by endoscopy.

Pseudoneurilemoma of the Spinal Canal
Southern Medical Journal, 1979Two cases are presented with the myelographic appearance of an intradural tumor believed to be neurilemoma. In one instance the defect was undoubtedly caused by a cicatrix which developed over a period of years, consequent to postoperative spinal fluid fistula.

Tumors of the Spinal Cord and Spinal Canal
2013The discussion of the tumors in the spinal canal is simplified by dividing the tumors that occur within the cord and tumors that are located outside the cord but within the thecal sac. Thus, the terms intramedullary and intradural-extramedullary tumors are widely used to describe these abnormalities In this chapter a description of the imaging features

Backache and the Lumbar Spinal Canal
Spine, 1980This paper records measurement of the lumbar spinal canal by diagnostic ultrasound in more than 700 subjects from early infancy until the age of 65 years. It demonstrates the range of canal size in a South Yorkshire population. The canal is relatively wide in children, reaches a maximum diameter in the late teens, and reduces slightly by late adult ...

Thoracic spinal canal stenosis
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1987✓ Hypertrophy of the posterior spinal elements leading to compromise of the spinal canal and its neural elements is a well-recognized pathological entity affecting the lumbar or cervical spine. Such stenosis of the thoracic spine in the absence of a generalized rheumatological, metabolic, or orthopedic disorder, or a history of trauma is generally ...

Acrodysostosis and Spinal Canal Involvement
World Neurosurgery, 2014Acrodysostosis is a rare syndrome characterized by peripheral dysostosis, nasal hypoplasia, and frequently mental retardation. Only two adult cases of acrodysostosis have been reported to have neurological symptoms.We report one additional adult case that presented with signs of spinal cord compression from spinal stenosis, and make the first ...

MRI has revolutionized the imaging of the spine, providing diagnostic information not available previously with other imaging modalities. Although CT and X-ray plain film still provide better details of the osseous structures and calcifications, these imaging modalities provide little information about the soft tissues that are often the anatomical ...
