Nerve Roots and Spinal Nerves in Degenerative Disk Disease
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1977After 43 years of investigating the intervertebral disk, the long term results of the management of patients from the standpoint of pain are not significantly different than they were prior to the identification of the herniated disk nor do they seem to be significantly different than no treatment at all. This should at least suggest that the phenomena

Selective nerve root block is a commonly performed procedure for targeted injection of anaesthetic agent and steroids for achieving pain relief in the affected neural distribution. It is widely used as a diagnostic tool and therapeutic procedure in non-malignant conditions such as degenerative disc disease.

Effects of Corticosteroids on Nerve Root Recovery After Spinal Nerve Root Compression
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002Corticosteroids have been used in the treatment of radiculopathy and postoperative pain after lumbar disc surgery. Although the effects of steroids are thought to be antiinflammatory, the underlying nature of action may be more complex and may involve a direct effect on pain mediators like substance P.

Structural properties of spinal nerve roots: Biomechanics
Experimental Neurology, 1986The biomechanics of spinal nerve roots obtained from normal and nerve-crushed mice were evaluated. Photographs and longitudinal force measurements were taken as nerve roots were elongated through mechanical failure. Proportional limit stress and strain as well as the apparent modulus were calculated from photographic and force measurements to ...

Pilocytic astrocytoma of a spinal nerve root
Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, 2002✓ A case of pilocytic astrocytoma involving a spinal nerve root is reported. A 39-year-old woman presented with a 1-year history of progressive pain and numbness, predominantly in the S-1 dermatome. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed an intradural lesion at the tip of the conus medullaris.

Regeneration after spinal nerve root injury
Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience, 1990Spinal nerve root avulsion has been considered as a central nervous type of injury and therefore not repaired surgically in man. The possibility for axonal regeneration after root avulsion or root lesion has been investigated in laboratory animals by means of up to date neurophysiological, morphological and tracing techniques.

[Incarceration of spinal nerve roots].
Ugeskrift for laeger, 1997The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognosis of motor function in patients that experience the combination of a sudden disappearance of radicular pain and severe motor paresis. Eight patients were identified over a ten year period. Operative decompression of the affected lumbar root with removal of a disc prolapse seems to have a good prognosis ...

LEUKEMIC INFILTRATION OF MENINGES AND SPINAL NERVE ROOTS
Pediatrics, 1963Three of 32 children with leukemic infiltration of the central nervous system have shown symptoms caused by involvement of the spinal meninges and nerve roots. The case reports demonstrate the use of radiation and intrathecal chemotherapy in combination and in sequence in management of this complication of leukemia.
