Abstract
Since March 1970 gas myelography has been used in our department on 26 patients with cervical myelopathy or radiculopathy.
By the lumbar route we encountered sometimes unsatisfactory filling of gas into the cervical region, and many patients complained discomfort during and after the procedure. We used, therefore, two needle oxygen method on several patients recently.
In this method, almost satisfactory results were obtained because of beeing free from heavy discomfort, and of better filling of the gas through the cervical subarachnoid space.
