A case of cervicomedullary junction compression

Journal of Pediatric Critical Care, 2017
The C-V junction is a transition site between mobile cranium and relatively rigid spinal column. It is also the site of the medullo-spinal junction. CV anomalies are defects of development, not necessarily congenital and may not manifest at birth.

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.

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

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.

Separation Operation Followed by Stereotactic Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Spinal Metastasis From Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Global Spine Journal
Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Objective Spinal metastasis from hepatocellular carcinoma is rapidly progressive and predisposes to spinal disability, cord compression and further neural injury, leading to poor prognosis.

Neuroprotective Effect of Aqueous Extract of Achillea millifolium Against Retrograde Destruction of Neurons of Ventral Horn of the Spinal Cord After Sciatic Nerve Compression in Rats

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2015
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: damage to peripheral nerves stimulates a series of morphological and biochemical changes in neurons, which are not concentrated only in the injured region, but are also observed in the cell body of neurons of the spinal cord and
