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.
