Significance of the Spinal Cord Position in Spinal Cord Stimulation

1995
The effects of the antero-posterior and medio-lateral positions of the spinal cord in the dural sac on the perception threshold and paresthesia coverage in spinal cord stimulation were analyzed. The distributions of the dorsal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) layer thickness, measured from transverse MR scans of normal subjects at various spinal levels, were ...

Spinal cord lesions

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1995
Selected topics related to rehabilitation of individuals with spinal cord lesions are reviewed and commented upon. A 10-week arm-cranking programme improved aerobic capacity and endurance in tetraplegics. Furthermore, endurance training and forced vital capacity were found to be positively correlated. Rowing had additional positive effects for scapular

Spinal Cord Decompression in Spinal Cord Injury

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981
There is substantial doubt as to the value of "decompressive" surgery in the management of spinal cord injury. A few relative indications exist for such surgery, but they are only relative. There are a number of absolute contraindications to the procedure, and it should be undertaken only under the most unusual and highly selected circumstances.

Spinal Cord with Atlas of Spinal Cord

2011
The 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

European Radiology, 1986
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].

Spinal Cord Infections

Neurologic Clinics, 2013
Spinal cord infections pose urgent diagnostic and management issues. This article outlines a clinical approach to potential spinal cord infection based on demographic risk factors and both central nervous system (CNS) and extra-CNS clinical clues. The spectrum of disease in vulnerable patient groups, such as transplant and chemotherapy recipients ...

Spinal cord malformations

2013
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

Angiomas of the Spinal Cord

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.

Spinal Cord Injury

Nursing Clinics of North America, 1990
The successful outcome of providing care to the individual with a spinal cord injury is to enable the patient to live as satisfactory and fulfilling a life as possible. How this is achieved will be different with each individual and family depending on the degree of disability, the family and social environment, and preferred life-styles.

Spinal Cord Tumors

Radiology, 1961
Up to the end of 1959, 244 patients, with a total of 249 spinal tumors, had undergone surgery in the Neurologic Institute of Milan (Istituto neurologico di Milano, Italy). The growths were examined histologically, with the exception of 19 endomedullary gliomas, in which decompression was carried out, but no biopsy was done.
