The clinician should attempt to localize a lesion as precisely as possible to determine the structure causing the problem and to identify the specific neural elements being affected (Rauschning, 1987). These neural elements include the dorsal and ventral roots and their union as the spinal nerve....
The spinal cord lesion disappeared on the MRI performed 1 year later. Thus far, there has been no recurrence.Conclusion:NBD may involve the lumbar spinal cord. Prompt recognition of this disease and early vigorous steroid therapy are important to prevent further disability and recurrence.Zhao...

Serotonin (5-HT) levels in the denervated cord after transplantation were restored to 40% of that in unlesioned animals. In addition, electrical stimulation of the grafts could excite motoneurons, suggesting that functional connections had been formed. Using complete spinal transection, which ...

The case presented here demonstrates that the spinal subarachnoid space must also be considered as a potential site for a lesion causing optic nervehead swelling. A 56-year-old man is presented with an intraspinal lumbar paraganglioma associated with increased cerebrospinal fluid protein, papilledema, ...
Surgical preparation included lesion and patient assessment, computed tomography (CT)-guided or open biopsy, blood preparation, and, when necessary, embolization of tumor-feeding vessels. The utilization of an ultrasonic bone scalpel commenced in late 2016. Data collection The collected dataset ...
Four years later, and as a result of acute onset of radicular symptoms, a lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging scan was performed, revealing an epidural cystic lesion. The cyst was removed, and histopathology revealed a synovial cyst. Key Words: epidural space, low back pain, lumbar spine,...
(seeFigures 3-4and3-39,B1). The ventral cortex of L3 and L4 can appear less distinct than the ventral cortex of other lumbar vertebrae, particularly in largedogs, and be misinterpreted as an aggressive vertebral lesion (seeFigure 3-39,A-B). Intervertebralforaminain the lumbar spine are ...
