THORACIC AND LUMBAR SPINE TRAUMA
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2001Complete thoracolumbar trauma evaluation incorporates radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Primarily to localize the level of injury, diagnosis of thoracolumbar spine trauma begins with radiographs. Computed tomography with sagittal reformatted images is more sensitive for identifying the full extent of injury and the ...

Seminars in Roentgenology, 1992
Thoracic spine fractures are most commonly flexion injuries resulting from vehicular accidents or falls. The initial evaluation of any multiple trauma victim should include AP and cross-table lateral radiographs of the thoracic spine. Conventional and computed axial tomography can add additional information regarding posterior element integrity and ...

Thoracic and Lumbosacral Spine Anatomy
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2022We review anatomy of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine. Knowledge of normal anatomy is vital when reviewing imaging of the spine because it allows for the detection of abnormal findings. We emphasize the normal appearance of the thoracic and lumbosacral spine on imaging, focusing on the most common imaging techniques of computed tomography and ...

Synovial cysts of the thoracic spine
Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, 2004Object.Thoracic synovial cysts (TSCs) are rare and are usually the subject of case reports. The authors studied the clinical manifestations, radiological aspects, and surgical treatment in a series of patients at their institution who harbored TSCs. They also review the literature to discuss the potential factors involved in the pathogenesis of this ...

Desmoplastic Fibroma in the Thoracic Spine
Journal of SPINAL DISORDERS, 1991Desmoplastic fibroma of the spine is an extremely rare, benign tumor. So far, only 7 cases have been reported in the world. We have treated 1 case of desmoplastic fibroma in the thoracic spine. Due to insufficient removal of the tumor, local recurrence was observed, and a second surgery posteriorly and anteriorly was performed for complete removal 8 ...

Spondylolisthesis of the thoracic spine
Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, 2006✓ The thoracic spine is stabilized in the anteroposterior direction by the rib cage and the facet joints. Spondylolisthesis of the thoracic spine is less common than that of the lumbar spine. The authors describe a rare case of thoracic spondylolisthesis in which the patient suffered back pain and myelopathy. The patient was a 44-year-old woman.

Percutaneous Biopsy of the Thoracic Spine
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1996Percutaneous biopsy of the thoracic spine has become the procedure of choice for biopsy of the thoracic spine. Familiarity with triangulation and using biplane fluoroscopy or the CT scan is a requirement, however. Once these techniques have been mastered, biopsy of the thoracic spine is safe and effective for obtaining diagnostic tissue and only under ...
