A progressive compression model of thoracic spinal cord injury in mice: function assessment and pathological changes in spinal cord

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.

Spinal cord swelling and intradural compression predict neurological recovery after acute cervical traumatic spinal cord injury.

PLoS ONE
Intradural 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.

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.

A systematic review of evidence on malignant spinal metastases : natural history and technologies for identifying patients at high risk of vertebral fracture and spinal cord compression [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Spinal metastases can lead to significant morbidity and reduction in quality of life due to spinal cord compression (SCC). Between 5% and 20% of patients with spinal metastases develop metastatic spinal cord compression during the course of ...

Primary B-cell Lymphoma of the Thoracic Spine: a rare cause of Spinal Cord Compression

, 2021
Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma arising from the spine is exceedingly rare. Spinal cord compression can be the first presentation of a patient with primary spinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Prognostic factors in patients with metastatic spinal cord compression secondary to lung cancer—A retrospective UK single-centre study [PDF]

, 2023
Purpose: Metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) is a severe complication of cancer that can lead to irreversible neurological impairment, necessitating prompt recognition and intervention. This retrospective, single-centre study aimed to determine the

Spinal artery syndrome following kyphoplasty in the setting of a non-compressive extradural cement extravasation: a case report

, 2023
INTRODUCTION: Cement extravasation (CE) during vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty for vertebral compression fracture (VCF) is not uncommon, though neurological deficits occur rarely and when paraparesis occurs severe cord compression has been described.

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.

Spinal cord stimulation for neuropathic pain following traumatic spinal cord injury: a case report

, 2022
Introduction Neuropathic pain is a common complication of spinal cord injury (SCI), and is notoriously difficult to adequately treat. Gunshot wounds (GSW) near the spinal cord may cause intractable chronic pain through spinal/nerve root transection, or ...

Experimental study on pressure response to graded spinal canal compromise in an in vitro burst fracture mode

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2017
Background: Spinal cord compression is a known cause of spinal cord injury. The purpose of this study is to measure pressure response during graded spinal cord compression.
