Spinal Cord with Atlas of Spinal Cord
2011The spinal cord is tubular is shape, has 32 segments with the gray matter in the center and white matter on the outside. Each segment has nerve rootlets on the dorsal and ventral surface with ganglia attached to the dorsal nerve rootlets. These dorsal root ganglia contain the primary cell bodies of the general sensory systems-pain, temperature touch ...

Spinal cord tumors are rare; however, every radiologist should be able to recognize and readily identify those lesions often found in younger patients or children [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,9]. Early diagnosis plays an important role in the management of the lesions and interferes with the prognosis and final outcome of the patient [10].

The British Journal of Radiology, 1959
Eighteen cases of angioma of the spinal cord are presented, 13 of which were operated on. After an analysis of the clinical findings, emphasis is placed on the importance of myelography with iodized oil which permitted the correct diagnosis in 83 per cent of the cases.

Malformations of the spinal cord are one of the most frequent malformations. They should be clearly divided into two completely different families of malformations: open dysraphisms and occult dysraphisms. Open dysraphism mostly consists in myelomeningocele (MMC). Its incidence is 1/1000 live births with a wide variation. Folic acid supplementation has

SCHISTOSOMIASIS OF THE SPINAL CORD
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1969Two cases of intramedullary schistosomiasis are reported, one proven and one assumed, representing the fourth and fifth such reports from this continent. The histologic lesion is one of granulomatous reaction and vasculitis, and the roentgenographic finding is that of an intramedullary mass on myelography.

Potential spinal cord injury must be recognized at the scene of injury, and the patient moved in such a manner that the spine remains immobilized, if the possibility of converting a simple fracture into a permanent para- or quadriplegia is to be avoided. Traction and immobilization must be constant; and once the diagnosis is made, the patient should be

Acta Neuropathologica, 1994
We report a case of spinal cord neurocytoma in a 67-year-old man who had experienced a progressive numbness of the left foot during the previous 4 years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a well-defined intramedullary tumor located at the T10-T11 level. The pathological examination revealed histological characteristics described in neurocytomas.

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1971
To the Editor. —The trouble with contemporary medicine is that there are more answers than questions. Although unyielding of satisfying answers, a result of the immense labor detailed in Kunin's report in the February issue Arch Intern Med 127: 285-287, 1971) on spinal cord casualties is that neglected questions are reemphasized.

Spinal cord injury represents a great health and economic burden for patients and society, and a major challenge for both the physician and the researcher. Following a lesion, a series of anatomopathological changes (glial scar formation, neuroinflammatory reactions, and cell death) occurs, associated with the poor capability of the adult CNS to ...

Neuroplasticity in the spinal cord
2013Abstract Once thought to be rigidly wired, the spinal cord now is understood to display significant plastic properties, which are manifest as both physiological and structural alterations in response to changes in patterns of use, disuse, and damage. Activity-dependent increases in responsiveness of spinal cord circuits are now thought to underlie or
