Dynamic Cord Compression Causing Cervical Myelopathy [PDF]

open access: yesNeurospine, 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 ...

Pain and analgesic use associated with skeletal-related events in patients with advanced cancer and bone metastases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
PURPOSE: Bone metastases secondary to solid tumors increase the risk of skeletal-related events (SREs), including the occurrence of pathological fracture (PF), radiation to bone (RB), surgery to bone (SB), and spinal cord compression (SCC).

First description of cervical intradural thymoma metastasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Thymoma and thymic carcinoma are rare epithelial tumors, which originate from the thymus gland. According to the World Health Organization there are "organotypic" (types A, AB, B1, B2, and B3) and "non-organotypic" (thymic carcinomas) thymomas.

Effect of melatonin on the functional recovery from experimental traumatic compression of the spinal cord

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2013
Spinal cord injury is an extremely severe condition with no available effective therapies. We examined the effect of melatonin on traumatic compression of the spinal cord. Sixty male adult Wistar rats were divided into three groups: sham-operated animals

Dynamic Compression of the Spinal Cord by Paraspinal Muscles following Cervical Laminectomy: Diagnosis Using Flexion-Extension MRI

open access: yesCase Reports in Radiology, 2015
Introduction. Flexion-extension, or kinematic, MRI has been used to identify dynamic spondylotic spinal cord compression not seen with traditional static MRI.

Compression analysis of the gray and white matter of the spinal cord

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2020
The spinal cord is composed of gray matter and white matter. It is well known that the properties of these two tissues differ considerably. Spinal diseases often present with symptoms that are caused by spinal cord compression.

Correlation of spinal cord compression angle and increased signal intensity on MRI in patients with ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament

open access: yesScientific Reports
We retrospectively investigated the correlation between the spinal cord compression angle and increased signal intensity (ISI) in 118 patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL).
