The thoracic spine manifests degenerative changes from aging, obesity, repetitive strain and occupational stress, although sex differences are poorly understood. In this work we examine whether differences in the expression of thoracic degenerative joint changes can be found in females ...
There are the cervical, thoracic, lumbar spine, sacrum and coccyx sections. The thoracic part of the spine consists of 12 bones.Answer and Explanation: Thoracic degenerative disease affects the part of the spine that corresponds to the middle of the back. It is the longest part of the spine...
It has many of the hallmarks of Scheuermann's; a stiff and rigid thoracic spine with an increased kyphosis. Sometimes there is a scoliosis and loss of disc space with mild degenerative changes, but without the typical bony changes associated with the disease. ...
But there was no report of degenerative spondylolisthesis in thoracic spine. The authors experienced a case of degenerative spondylolisthesis in the thoracic spine. And we achieved a satisfactory result with posterior decompressive laminectomy alone.Kim, Eui Hyun...
aA 48-year old patient suffered from pain in the scapular area and the thoracic spine. Comprehensive medical and orthopedic examination was done. With the exception of local muscular tension and mild degenerative changes in the thoracic vertebrae, no other pathological changes were detected. Physiother...
摘要: Herniation of a thoracic disc in an acromegalic giant is reported. Degenerative changes in the spine in association with dorsal kyphosis, and the additional strain, resulted in the disc prolapse.DOI: 10.1136/pgmj.65.765.491 年份: 1989 ...
Narrowing of the spinal canal, as a result of degenerative changes associated with normal wear and tear due to aging, may cause compression on the spinal cord and nerves, but this condition is rare in the thoracic region. 6. Long Thoracic Nerve Compression ...

ischemia with degenerative changes and fibrosis develops, not limited to the brachial plexus, but also involving the brain (i.e. short term memory loss). Any decrease in venous return diverts venous and lymphatic flow back into thevertebral venous plexus / Batson's plexusthat expands the spinal...
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is the abnormal dilation of a segment of the thoracic aorta, usually the ascending aorta. Most TAAs are due to degenerative aortic disorders, commonly in patients > 65 years of age. Genetic TAAs account for 20% of cases and are frequently found in younger patie...
