Multiple myeloma presenting as spinal cord compression: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2010
Introduction Spinal cord compression is a potentially devastating condition that demands immediate attention. Efforts must be divided between addressing the symptoms of cord compression and identifying the precise etiology of the condition.

A comparison of radiological descriptions of spinal cord compression with quantitative measures, and their role in non-specialist clinical management.

PLoS ONE, 2019
IntroductionMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is gold-standard for investigating Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy (DCM), a disabling disease triggered by compression of the spinal cord following degenerative changes of adjacent structures.

Spinal Cord Compression

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2012
Malignant epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC) remains a common neuro-oncologic emergency with high associated morbidity. Despite widespread availability of MRI, the diagnosis frequently goes unmade until myelopathy supervenes, which is unfortunate because the strongest predictor of neurologic outcome with treatment is the neurologic status when ...

Evidence-based commentary on the diagnosis, management, and further research of degenerative cervical spinal cord compression in the absence of clinical symptoms of myelopathy [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) represents the final consequence of a series of degenerative changes in the cervical spine, resulting in cervical spinal canal stenosis and mechanical stress on the cervical spinal cord.

Cerebrospinal fluid pressure dynamics as a biomechanical marker for quantification of spinal cord compression: Conceptual framework and systematic review of clinical trials [PDF]

Brain and Spine
Introduction: In patients with acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM), spinal cord compression is considered a main contributor to spinal cord damage, associated with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space obstruction.

Spinal Cord Compression

Spinal cord compression is a serious neurological condition characterized by pressure on the spinal cord, which can result in a range of symptoms including pain, numbness, motor weakness, and, in severe cases, paralysis. This article explores the etiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and management strategies for spinal cord compression.
