BACKGROUND To discuss the strategy of suprapedicular foraminal endoscopic approach to lumbar lateral recess decompression and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this strategy. MATERIAL AND METHODS Complete clinical information of 52 cases of lumbar lateral recess decompression with therapy of suprapedicular foraminal endoscopic approach were analyzed during the period from February 2010 t...
BACKGROUND In standard anterior cervical diskectomy, complete resection of the uncinate process is not commonly attempted because of the risk of injury to the vertebral artery. This may result in incomplete decompression of the nerve root when there is severe osseous foraminal stenosis. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the feasibility of total uncinectomy with an ultrasonic bone dissector in patients...
STUDY DESIGN Clinical study. PURPOSE The dimensions of the working zone for endoscopic lumbar discectomy should be evaluated by preoperative magnetic resonance images. The aim of this study was to analyze the angle of the roots, root area, and foraminal area. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Few studies have reported on the triangular working zone during transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy. M...
Introduction: To report a case of monoparesis caused by a vertebral artery (VA) anomaly and foraminal stenosis treated with microvascular decompression by the posterior approach. Material and Methods: A 51-year-old man was referred because of a 4-year history of progressive left shoulder pain refractory to other forms of treatment and a 7-month history of arm weakness. Clinical and radiologic e...
Nerve sheath tumors are the most common spinal tumors but extradural foraminal nerve sheath tumors are much rarer. Traditionally, these nerve sheath tumors have been resected via an open posterior approach. We describe an alternative minimally invasive (MIS) lateral extracavitary approach for resection of symptomatic extradural foraminal spinal neurofibromas. We describe three consecutive male ...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate in vitro the effects of magnetic susceptibility and motion on the estimation of neural foraminal diameter with three-dimensional Fourier transformation (3DFT) gradient-recalled MR imaging as compared with CT. A cervical spine phantom was constructed from desiccated human cervical vertebral bodies embedded in a water-based proteinaceous gel. The phantom ...
Many patients present for neurosurgical spine evaluation with MRI studies conducted at facilities outside of the treating medical center. These images often vary widely in technique, for example, variation in slice thickness, number of slices, and gantry angle. While these images may be sufficient in conjunction with a physical exam to make surgical evaluations, we have found they are often inc...
OBJECTIVE Cases of contralateral radiculopathy after a transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion with a single cage (unilateral TLIF) had been reported, but the phenomenon has not been explained satisfactorily. The purpose of this study was to determine its incidence, causes, and risk factors. METHODS We did retrospective study with 546 patients who underwent a unilateral TLIF, and used CT and M...
We established a novel measurement technique to evaluate the anatomic information of nutrient artery canals using Mimics (Materialise's Interactive Medical Image Control System) software, which will provide full knowledge of nutrient artery canals to assist in the diagnosis of longitudinal fractures of tibia and choosing an optimal therapy. Here we collected Digital Imaging and Communications i...
