Australasian Radiology, 1979
SUMMARYLumbar spinal stenosis is an important condition which has not been fully appreciated in the past. The diagnosis is largely clinical but radiology can materially assist its assessment. The condition often requires wide surgical decompression which produces a high rate of symptomatic relief.

Stenosis of the spinal canal in achondroplasia
The Italian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 1991Stenosis 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)

Intermittent Priapism in Spinal Canal Stenosis
Spine, 1987A case of spontaneous intermittent priapism in a patient with spinal canal stenosis is presented. Erection, as well as intermittent neurogenic claudication and urinary incontinence were provoked by physical exertion, mainly walking. The symptoms completely resolved after decompressive lumbar laminectomy.

Spinal canal stenosis after vertebroplasty
Clinical Radiology, 2005Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive treatment for vertebral compression fractures to relieve pain and provide strength. It achieves excellent results regarding pain relief and quality of life. Complications related to the procedure are rated infrequent and mostly minor. However, the long-term consequences are unclear.

Spinal Canal Stenosis at the Level of Axis
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2000We describe a rare case of marked segmental stenosis of the axis secondary to developmental hypertrophy of the posterior neural arch causing severe neck pain and headache in the occipital region. The patient made a remarkable recovery following decompressive laminectomy and foraminal decompression.

Acrodysostosis Associated with Spinal Canal Stenosis
Spine, 1993An adult case of acrodysostosis with striking lumbar spinal canal stenosis is reported. She complained of numbness on the right arm, intermittent claudication with numbness on both legs and pain and weakness on the left leg. Although the reduced lumbar interpedicular distance has been reported, no adult case with neurologic symptoms has been reported.

Microdecompression for Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis
Spine, 1999A description of the technique for lumbar microdecompression and a prospective study of the outcomes.To describe and analyze a technique that affords an excellent decompression while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.Commonly used techniques of lumbar decompression that include bilateral takedown of paraspinal musculature and aggressive bony ...

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1977
This is a report of 7 cases of narrow lumbar spinal canal syndrome encountered in 7 patients in a community hospital in one year. Nerve compression occurred from pressure from enlarged posterior elements. Although the clinical manifestations were unspecific, the lumbar spine radiographs and myelographic features are quite characteristic.

The Narrow Lumbar Spinal Canal or Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1976Narrow lumbar spinal canal or lumbar spinal stenosis is a not uncommon problem. Thirty-two patients with this disorder have been treated surgically at the Ochsner Medical Center between 1963 and 1973. The best method of diagnosis is a careful history and second is roentgenographic evidence, particularly the myelogram. The surgical treatment consists of
