Spinal cord injury represents a great health and economic burden for patients and society, and a major challenge for both the physician and the researcher. Following a lesion, a series of anatomopathological changes (glial scar formation, neuroinflammatory reactions, and cell death) occurs, associated with the poor capability of the adult CNS to ...

Microangiographic study of experimental spinal cord injuries.
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1971The pathology of spinal cord injury has been studied in 34 rabbits and 5 dogs with attention focused on the condition of the microvasculature during the evolution of neuronal and axonal degeneration and necrosis.

Potential spinal cord injury must be recognized at the scene of injury, and the patient moved in such a manner that the spine remains immobilized, if the possibility of converting a simple fracture into a permanent para- or quadriplegia is to be avoided. Traction and immobilization must be constant; and once the diagnosis is made, the patient should be

The incidence of civilian spinal cord injuries in the United States has been estimated at 5,000 per year. 1 That this figure is an estimate instead of a documented fact suggests the lack of organization in the approach to this problem. It is even more difficult to establish the number of living spinal cord injury patients in the country: guesses—and ...

Pulmonary complications of acute spinal cord injuries.
Neurosurgery, 1987The records of 123 consecutive patients admitted with spinal cord injury were examined for the presence of pulmonary complications. Forty-nine had tetraplegia and 23 had paraplegia; the remainder suffered a variety of neurological deficits.

Spinal Cord Decompression in Spinal Cord Injury
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981There is substantial doubt as to the value of "decompressive" surgery in the management of spinal cord injury. A few relative indications exist for such surgery, but they are only relative. There are a number of absolute contraindications to the procedure, and it should be undertaken only under the most unusual and highly selected circumstances.

It has been known for more than a century that axons of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) have the capacity to regenerate after injury, while axons of the central nervous system (CNS) show no regenerative growth. For many decades this fact was accepted as a “law of nature” and research in this field was very limited.
