While recent advances in emergency care and rehabilitation allow many SCI patients to survive, methods for reducing the extent of injury and for restoring function are still limited. Immediate treatment for acute SCI includes techniques to relieve cord compression, prompt (within 8 hours of the injury) drug therapy with corticosteroids such as methylprednisolone to minimize cell damage, and stabilization of the vertebrae of the spine to prevent further injury. What is the prognosis?

SPINAL CORD There are two distinct patterns of abnormality of disease of the spinal cord: longitudinal and segmental, corresponding to upper and lower motor neuron respectively. Usually both forms are present together. Longitudinal damage produces loss of function of the entire system (motor or sensory) from the level of injury down. Segmental damage produces signs limited to the level of a single segment or segments: there is segmental motor, sensory and autonomic loss leading to atrophy and weakness in a myotomal distribution, reflex loss, sensory loss in a dernatomal distribution and sympathetic and parasympathetic disturbance. 1. ANATOMY External morphology The spinal cord is a small structure, about the width of your thumb. Since the cord ends at the bottom of the first lumbar vertebra it is virtually limited to the cervical and thoracic areas. Note that owing to the small size of the cord it is usual for both sides of the body to be affected in cord disease. There are a series of motor and sensory rootlets issuing from the cord: 8 Cervical, 12 Thoracic, 5 Lumbar and 5 Sacral. The ventral roots carry the myelinated axons to the muscles and muscle spindles and the myelinated axons of preganglionic "pathetic neurons (parasympathetic in the sacral region). Dorsal roots carry sensory input from skin, muscle spindle, joint and viscera in both myelinated and unmyelinated axons. The rootlets join together to form the mixed spinal nerves which exit from the spinal canal via the intervertebral foramen and then go on to supply the myotomes and dermatomes.

Medical Dictionary Naturapathic Glossary Aphrodisiacs Immune System ... Table of content Spinal cord trauma Causes and Risks: Damage to the spinal cord affects all nervous function that is controlled at and below the level of the injury, including muscle control and sensation. More than 30 bones make up the spine. These bones (vertebrae) and the cushions between the vertebrae (disks) allow the back to bend while protecting the spinal cord from injury. Spinal cord trauma is caused by motor vehicle accidents, falls, sports injuries (particularly diving into shallow water), industrial accidents, gunshot wounds, assault, and other injuries. A seemingly minor injury can cause spinal cord trauma if the spine is weakened (such as from rheumatoid arthritis or osteoporosis Direct injury such as cuts can occur to the spinal cord, particularly if the bones or the discs are damaged. Fragments of bone (from fractured vertebrae for example) or fragments of metal (such as from a traffic accident) can cut or damage the spinal cord. Direct damage can also occur if the spinal cord is pulled, pressed sideways, or compressed. This may occur if the head, neck, or back are twisted abnormally during an accident or injury. Bleeding, or fluid accumulation and swelling, can occur within the spinal cord or outside the spinal cord but within the spine. The accumulation of blood or fluid can compress the spinal cord and damage it.

Cervical Disc Disease COMPREHENSIVE SPINE PROGRAM COMPREHENSIVE SPINE DIAGNOSES INDEX What is cervical disc disease? Herniation of the contents of an intervertebral disc may occur when stretching or a tear occurs in the annulus fibrosus. Disc material then may enter the spinal canal or neuroforamen which may result in symptoms. What causes the symptoms of herniated cervical discs? Whereas in the lumbar spinal canal only nerve roots are present, in the cervical canal the spinal cord may also be compressed. The symptoms and signs produced are the result of nerve root compression, spinal cord compression, or both. What are the symptoms of herniated cervical discs? The most common complaint is neck pain which limits motion and is aggravated by neck extension. Pain also may radiate into one arm, in a pattern characteristic of the particular root involved (see below). Patients often hold the arm elevated and behind the head, presumably because this maneuver reduces the tension on the nerve root and thus lessens the pain. In most cases, the onset of pain is upon awakening, without identifiable trauma or other precipitating event. Radicular symptoms are dependent upon the level of the disc herniation and the structures compressed.
