CSF flow and spinal cord motion were analyzed by peak-to-peak amplitude and total displacement per segment and heartbeat, respectively. Clinical data included age, height, BMI, duration of symptoms, Bern score according to Dobrocky et al., and type of the spinal CSF leak according to Schie...
A spinal headache is a headache which occurs after the membrane which surrounds the spinal cord has been punctured, as occurs in spinal anesthesia and lumbar punctures. The headache is caused by the leaking of spinal fluid through the puncture site, and usually onsets between 12 hours and a ...
Tethered cord syndromepresents with signs and symptoms that result from excessive tension on the spinal cord. At birth, the conus is usually located at the L2–L3 level and ascends to the L1–L2 level by 3 months of age. Spinal dysraphism is responsible for the majority of cases. A constel...

A woman in her 60s was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis because of progressive weakness and wasting of the shoulder and upper extremity musculature. However, the cause was a spontaneous leak of cerebrospinal fluid in the spine. Both upper ext
Spinal cord stimulationblocks transmission of pain signals by the gate theory. The patient has a remote control and modern devices allow for remote charging and also modulation of stimulus depending on symptoms. Some patients have positional pain and, when the patient is not in the position that ...

There is complex neurophysiology related to the control of the upper limb orchestrated at the cervical spinal cord level. Yet, the present day solution is to address the symptoms of SCI at the muscles of the upper limb or to bypass them. This will not likely yield meaningful recovery of arm...
