CT Myelography による頚椎性脊髄症の予後について

抄録

We studied about compression ratio of spinal cord on computed tomographic spondylotic myelopathy. We found that some cases with compression of below 40% ratio did not well. Some factors influencing on the postoperative results exist: for example, period until operation, canal diameter and heavy neurological sign. By compression ratio and those factors, we may be able to presuppose the prognosis of patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy.
