We present a case of an extensive cervicothoracic gangliocytoma in an asymptomatic 9-year-old boy with progressive scoliosis. MR findings were that of a moderately enhancing cervicothoracic intramedullary mass, which throughout most of its length could not be distinguished from the normal spinal cord.

seven patients who had intractable pain of the pelvis and lower extremities were scheduled for cordotomy of the spinothalamic tracts after preliminary investigations. in three patients laminectomy was performed, to approach the anterior portion of the spinal cord, anil in the rest anterior cordotomy was performed with anterior disectomy under direct vision of the spinal cord. it appears that an...

This study investigated the relationship between the active cervical range of motion (ROM) and changes in the head and neck posture after continuous visual display terminal (VDT) work. Twenty VDT workers were recruited from laboratories. The active cervical ROM of the participants was measured and videotaped to capture the craniocervical and cervicothoracic angles using a single video camera be...
