Are the determinants of vertebral endplate changes and severe disc degeneration in the lumbar spine the same? A magnetic resonance imaging study in middle-aged male workers. Kuisma M,Karppinen J,Haapea M,Niinim?ki J et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders . 2008...
Lumbar vertebraepelvis indexsacrum slopespondylolisthesisBackground: Severe spondylolisthesis is related to high degenerative changes in verte-bral spine. Degenerative spondylolisthesis often is seen with high-sacral slope. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between high degenerative spondy...
However, TBS is significantly affected by the presence of extreme structural artifact in the lumbar spine, especially those with multilevel degenerative disc changes and/or instrumentation that precludes reli-able BMD reporting. 展开 关键词: Osteoporosis Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry Trabecular bone ...
In this lesson you will learn about the spine, the intervertebral discs, and how changes to the intervertebral disc result in severe degenerative disk disease, which is not really a disease at all. Pain in the Neck…and Back You're able to sit, stand, walk, and bend thanks to your body...
MRI of the lumbar spine showed multilevel degenerative changes. Electromyography revealed neurogenic features consistent with S1 radiculopathy. Our case illustrates that muscular hypertrophy may follow chronic denervation as a consequence of spinal neural compressive disease. The various mechanisms postulated ...
Spondylodiscitis was localised in the cervical spine in 31 patients (16.2%), in the thoracic spine in 43 patients (22.5%), in the lumbar spine in 101 patients (52.9%), and in a disseminated location in 16 patients (8.4%). Clinical findings ...
Later in 2001, Lenke et al. developed a three-component classification, for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) that incorporates curve type, a lumbar spine modifier and a sagittal thoracic modifier [4]. The addition of sagittal modifiers enhances the utility of Lenke’s classification by ...
Both surgeries caused changes of the SCL but in different ways. The Ponte osteotomy mostly elongated the spinal cord at the concave side of the deformed spine with less effect on the convex side. The PVCR surgery mostly shortened the spinal cord at the convex side with less effect on the ...
T4 or upper thoracic syndrome, which is caused by the irritation of the nerves near the chest spine, can cause pain between the shoulder blades and abnormal sensations in the forearm, hand and fingers, on one or both sides (Picture 8). The pain may or may not be aggravated by touch and...
