Spinal cord compression in lymphoma
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1978A retrospective analysis of 59 patients with diffuse histiocytic and diffuse poorly differentiated lymphocytic lymphoma was performed to determine the incidence and characteristic features of patients developing spinal cord compression. Spinal cord compression occurred in 6 of 59 (10.2%) patients.

Spinal cord compression in neuroblastoma
Surgical Neurology, 1985Twelve of 80 patients suffering from neuroblastoma who were treated during a 21-year period had intraspinal involvement. Mediastinal tumors have a greater tendency to extend to the spinal canal; however, distant spread of the tumor is rare in patients presenting with intraspinal extension.

Epidural spinal cord compression
Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2005Spinal 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

Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism with spinal cord compression
Pediatric Radiology, 1988We describe a patient with pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism who had an osseous tubercle on the anterolateral margin of the foramen magnum causing compression of the spinal cord. This patient had no evidence for any endocrinopathies and had no other spinal canal anomalies.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses spinal cord compression that may evolve from disease or trauma of the vertebrae, prolapse of intervertebral discs, or lesions within the spinal canal such as tumor or infection. Unfortunately, the relatively uncommon condition of spinal cord compression can often begin with the almost ubiquitous symptom of ...

Spinal Cord and Root Compression
Medicine, 2000Abstract Spinal cord and root compression is a common problem in all specialties. There are many possible classifications, based on location (extradural or intradural), disease type (congenital, acquired, inflammatory, infective, neoplastic, degenerative or traumatic) or timing of onset (acute or chronic). Syndromes used to describe different clinical

Abstract The issues related to the treatment of spinal cord compression from cancer present a paradigm for the treatment of all metastatic disease. The profound consequence of paralysis from spinal cord compression to the patient and their caregivers involves significant suffering and financial burden.

Spinal cord compression refers to an inward displacement of the dural sac and/or its contents by a lesion arising outside of the spinal cord. It is caused by metastatic or primary spine tumors, disk herniations, vertebral fractures, cysts, spinal epidural abscesses and hematomas, and degenerative disease most commonly.

Spinal Cord Compression and Spinal Cord Tumours
1992The spinal canal extends from the foramen magnum to the coccyx. The spinal intradural and subarachnoid compartments containing the neural elements end at the level of S2. The cord lies within these meningeal sleeves and in a normal adult, the conus medullaris tapers to an end at the L1/L2 intervertebral disc level.
