Clinical reasoning in canine spinal disease: what combination of clinical information is useful? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Spinal disease in dogs is commonly encountered in veterinary practice. Numerous diseases may cause similar clinical signs and presenting histories. The study objective was to use statistical models to identify combinations of discrete parameters from the

Effect of the preoperative assessment of the anteroposterior diameters of the spinal canal and dural area on the efficacy of oblique lumbar interbody fusion in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Objective The purpose of this study was to quantify the degree of lumbar spinal stenosis by assessing the anterior and posterior vertebral canal diameter and dural area, determine the sensitivity of the anterior and posterior spinal canal diameter, dural

Validity of MRI Measurements in Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background:Lumbar spinal canal stenosis results from compression of spinal cord and/or nerves at any level of lumbar vertebra. The relationship between clinical features of the patients and the degree of stenosis is not clear and there is no ...

Computer simulation of syringomyelia in dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Syringomyelia is a pathological condition in which fluid-filled cavities (syringes) form and expand in the spinal cord. Syringomyelia is often linked with obstruction of the craniocervical junction and a Chiari malformation, which is similar in both ...

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

open access: yesCurrent Sports Medicine Reports, 2007
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a narrowing of the spinal canal with cord or nerve root impingement resulting in radiculopathy or pseudoclaudication. It is a common diagnosis that is occurring with increased frequency in sports medicine clinics. Symptoms include radicular pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness.

Three-dimensional simulation of the lumbar spine under lumbar spinal stenosis with different sizes of spinal canal

open access: yesPartial Differential Equations in Applied Mathematics
In this paper, we investigate the effect of body weight on the lumbar spine with different spinal canal sizes when humans bend down by using the finite element method. Lumbar spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal.

Could spinal canal compression be a cause of polyneuropathy?

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2016
Causality between spinal cord compression and polyneuropathy is difficult to define, especially under the circumstances that polyneuropathy can have many causes. Seven patients with spinal cord compression and electrophysiological signs of polyneuropathy
