The term stenosis means a narrowing of the calibre of an orifice or a tube. It causes a decreased flow of fluids or gasses within the tube or compression of its solid contents (Verbiest 1976). In the case of the spinal canal, the term indicates a pathological condition causing compression of the contents of the canal, particularly the neural structures. If compression does not occur, the canal ...
Measuring spinal canal size in lumbar spinal stenosis: description of method and preliminary results
BACKGROUND Lumbar spinal stenosis is a pathological condition of the spinal channel with its concentric narrowing with presence of specific clinical syndrome. Absence of the clear unified radiological signs is the one of the basic problems of the lumbar spinal stenosis. PURPOSE The authors seek to create method of assessment of the spinal canal narrowing degree, based on anatomical aspects of...
background & aim: lumbar spinal stenosis (lss) is a common condition. this congenital or acquired stenosis has multiple etiologies. the goal of this study was to describe intraoperative pathoanatomic findings of lumbar spinal stenosis observed within a black african population. methods & materials/patients: it was a retrospective and descriptive study performed at departmental teaching hospital...
The most common cause of airway stenosis is prolonged intubation. Postintubation stenosis may be a delayed onset and may progress gradually. Endoscopic assessment and deciding to do a tracheostomy after 7 days is advised in adults. Segmented resection and primary anastomosis is the most effective modality of treatment for complete or near-complete tracheal stenosis. Surgeon’s ability for re...
Introduction: Low backache is a common condition to occur in the middle age. It is mainly caused by the degeneration of the intervertebral disc which forms the main support to the vertebral column. Lumbar spinal canal stenosis results in the compression of spinal cord and nerves at the level of lumbar vertebra. Aim: The purpose of this study is to measure the spinal canal dimensions and correla...
The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between trauma severity and the degree of cord injury in patients with ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). Four-hundred-one patients were classified into Group A (OPLL(+)), Group B (spinal stenosis (+) and OPLL(-)), and Group C (OPLL (-) and spinal stenosis(-)). Trauma severity and neurological injury severity were co...
INTRODUCTION: The management of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) represents a significant cost to the healthcare system resulting from the functional limitations and diminished quality of life in patients. Calcitonin is presently indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, Paget's disease, spine pain related to vertebral compression fractures, and spinal metastases. In spinal stenos...
Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis is the most common indication for lumbar spine surgery in adults over the age of 65. Although some studies have claimed improvement with conservative treatment, several comparative studies have shown better outcomes for surgical treatment for patients with moderate to severe stenosis. As the life expectancy of the elderly population increases, and by virtue o...
PURPOSE To measure the effect of extension, flexion, lateral bending, and axial rotation loads applied to the spine on the anatomic relationship of the spinal nerves in the neural foramen to the ligamentum flavum and the intervertebral disk, anc to determine the effect of disk degeneration on the response to loading. METHODS Cadaveric lumbar motion segments were examined with CT and MR imagin...
BACKGROUND Pregabalin is a well-accepted treatment option for patients with neuropathic pain. However, the therapeutic efficacy of pregabalin for reducing the incidence of spinal surgery to treat leg symptoms in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to analyze the therapeutic efficacy of pregabalin for reducing the incidence of spinal surgery for le...
