The Spinal Canal in Phocomelia and Amelia

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1969
SUMMARYIn phocomelic and amelic children the cervical and lumbar spinal canal is narrower than in normal children. There is no evidence that this is related to smaller cord size in these regions.SUMMARYIn phocomelic and amelic children the cervical and lumbar spinal canal is narrower than in normal children.

Computed Tomography of the Spinal Canal

Radiology, 1976
The value of computed tomography (CT) in cases of spinal dysraphism, spinal canal narrowing and widening, and spinal bony abnormalities is discussed. With further experience, CT may become a valuable modality for the diagnosis of spinal diseases.

Stenosis of the spinal canal in achondroplasia

The Italian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 1991
Stenosis of the spinal canal is a very frequent finding in achondroplastic patients. It is secondary to abnormalities of endochondrial ossification, which is responsible for formation of the vertebral bone structures, and, subsequently, to bone degeneration. Cervical stenosis (most frequently involving the first metameres and the craniospinal junction)

Foreign Objects in the Spinal Canal

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979
To the Editor.— Although it is generally believed, as stated by Nino et al (240:1173, 1978), that "foreign objects should always be removed from the spinal canal," demonstration that removal of bone or lead fragments is actually of benefit remains unproved.

Anatomy of the Lumbar Spinal Canal

1988
1. In the lumbar spinal canal of the achondroplast there is decreased cross-sectional area. In addition the intervertebral foramina are narrow. These changes result in reduced area for the dural sac and exiting spinal nerves. 2. There is associated thoracolumbar kyphosis and a lumbosacral hyperlordosis.

Biomechanics of the lumbar spinal canal

Clinical Biomechanics, 1986
The normal mobility of the vertebral column, particularly in the cervical and lumbar regions, gives rise to major changes in the length and lumen of the spinal canal and of its volume. Its contents must therefore adapt to these changes without disturbance to their several functions.

Tumors of the Spinal Cord and Spinal Canal

2013
The 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
