Association of neurologic deficits with surgical outcomes and health‐related quality of life after treatment for metastatic epidural spinal cord compression

Cancer, 2019
A critical knowledge gap exists regarding the impact of neurologic deficits on surgical outcomes and health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) for patients surgically treated for metastatic epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC).

The Combination of Separation Surgery and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) for a Primary Osteosarcoma of the Spine: A Case Report and Literature Review

Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2023
Background: Primary spinal osteosarcoma is a rare and intractable disease. Although en bloc resection is favorable for longer survival, it is not always achievable. Separation surgery, a partial resection with circumferential separation to safely deliver

Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management. [PDF]

, 2013
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

Endogenous Proliferation after Spinal Cord Injury in Animal Models [PDF]

, 2012
Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in motor and sensory deficits, the severity of which depends on the level and extent of the injury. Animal models for SCI research include transection, contusion, and compression mouse models.

Role of macrophages and activated microglia in neuropathic pain associated with chronic progressive spinal cord compression

Scientific Reports, 2019
Neuropathic pain (NeP) is commonly encountered in patients with diseases associated with spinal cord damage (e.g., spinal cord injury (SCI) and compressive myelopathy).

Geometrical variations in white and gray matter affect the biomechanics of spinal cord injuries more than the arachnoid space

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016
Traumatic spinal cord contusions lead to loss of quality of life, but their pathomechanisms are not fully understood. Previous studies have underlined the contribution of the cerebrospinal fluid in spinal cord protection.

A Single Dose of Atorvastatin Applied Acutely after Spinal Cord Injury Suppresses Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Promotes Axon Outgrowth, Which Might Be Essential for Favorable Functional Outcome. [PDF]

, 2018
The aim of our study was to limit the inflammatory response after a spinal cord injury (SCI) using Atorvastatin (ATR), a potent inhibitor of cholesterol biosynthesis.

Dynamic Cord Compression Causing Cervical Myelopathy [PDF]

Neurospine, 2019
Due to the highly mobile nature of the cervical spine, and the fact that most magnetic resonance imagings (MRIs) and computed tomography scans are obtained only in one single position, dynamic cord compression can be an elusive diagnosis that is often ...

Genome-wide gene expression profiling of stress response in a spinal cord clip compression injury model. [PDF]

, 2013
BackgroundThe aneurysm clip impact-compression model of spinal cord injury (SCI) is a standard injury model in animals that closely mimics the primary mechanism of most human injuries: acute impact and persisting compression.
