Neural Regeneration Research, 2017 Non-traumatic injury accounts for approximately half of clinical spinal cord injury, including chronic spinal cord compression. However, previous rodent spinal cord compression models are mainly designed for rats, few are available for mice.

PLoS ONEIntradural spinal cord compression impairs perfusion pressure and is putatively rate-limiting for recovery after traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI). After cervical tSCI, even minimally improved tissue preservation may help promote neurological recovery.

Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression
Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, 2005 Approximately 70% of cancer patients have metastatic disease at death. The spine is involved in up to 40% of those patients. Spinal cord compression may develop in 5% to 10% of cancer patients and up to 40% of patients with preexisting nonspinal bone metastasis (>25,000 cases/y).

Epidural spinal cord compression
Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2005 Spinal cord compression from epidural metastases (epidural spinal cord compression, ESCC) is the most common neurological complication of cancer after brain metastases. Extradural compression represents 97% of spinal cord metastatic lesions. ESCC usually occurs in patients with disseminated disease. The most common tumours associated with ESCC are lung

Multiple myeloma presenting as spinal cord compression: a case report
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.

Management of Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression
Tumori Journal, 2003 Metastatic spinal cord compression, diagnosed in 3–7% of cancer patients, is one of the most dreaded complications of metastatic cancer. It is an oncologic emergency, which must be diagnosed early and treated promptly to achieve the best results and avoid progressive pain, paralysis, sensory loss and sphincter incontinence.

Malignant spinal cord compression
Onkologija, 2023 Malignant spinal cord compression is one of the most serious complications of cancer and represents an oncologic emergency. Timely diagnosis and treatment within 24 hours of symptom onset affects disease outcome and patient’s quality of life.

Imaging of metastatic epidural spinal cord compression
Frontiers in Radiology, 2022 Metastatic epidural spinal cord compression develops in 5–10% of patients with cancer and is becoming more common as advancement in cancer treatment prolongs survival in patients with cancer (1–3).

Could spinal cord oscillation contribute to spinal cord injury in degenerative cervical myelopathy?
Brain and Spine, 2023 Introduction: Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy [DCM] is a slow-motion spinal cord injury. Compression and dynamic compression have been considered disease hallmarks.
