17 lis 2015 · The diagnosis of C6–7 myelopathy can be difficult, depending on the distinctive neurological signs present.
symptoms of cervical compressive myelopathy are general numbness and sensory disturbance in the upper limbs, reaching motor dysfunction with progression of the myelopathy.
15 sty 2023 · Cervical myelopathy describes a spinal cord compression at the cervical level of the spinal column resulting in spasticity (sustained muscle contractions), hyperreflexia, pathologic reflexes, digit/hand clumsiness, or gait disturbance. Classically, it has an insidious onset, progressing in a stepwise manner with functional decline.
22 lut 2018 · Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM), earlier referred to as cervical spondylotic myelopathy, involves spinal cord dysfunction from compression in the neck. 1 Patients report neurological symptoms such as pain and numbness in limbs, poor coordination, imbalance, and bladder problems.
Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a neurologic condition that develops insidiously over time as degenerative changes of the spine result in compression of the cord and nearby structures. It is the most common form of spinal cord injury in adults; yet, its diagnosis is often delayed.
Cervical myelopathy refers to the symptoms and signs associated with compression of the portion of the spinal cord that passes through in the cervical spine (i.e. the ‘neck”).
Eight patients (40%) had no sensory disturbance in the upper limbs and 8 patients (40%) had no muscle weakness in the upper limbs. We determined that patients had cervical myelopathy when their central motor conduction time measured in abductor digit minim was longer than 6.76 ms (+2 s.d.).
