Traumatic Cervical Spinal Cord Injury: Correlation of Imaging Findings with Neurological Outcome
Brazilian Neurosurgery, 2022 Background Traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) is extremely costly to the global health system. Due to the significant frequency rate of traumatic cervical spinal cord injuries (TCSCI), the possible association between imaging findings and clinical ...

An update on hemilaminectomy of the cranial thoracic spine: Review of 6 cases [PDF]
Open Veterinary Journal, 2020 Background: The optimal surgical approach to relieve spinal cord compression in the cranial thoracic spine is not well described, and the anatomy of the cranial thoracic vertebrae creates added surgical difficulty.

Establishment of a rat model of chronic thoracolumbar cord compression with a flat plastic screw
Neural Regeneration Research, 2016 Previous studies of animal models of chronic mechanical compression of the spinal cord have mainly focused on cervical and thoracic lesions, but few studies have investigated thoracolumbar injury.
