• spinal cord injury
  19 February 2008

  Traumatic spinal cord injury leads to a series of reactive changes.
  First, the injury could directly damage the cell bodies and/or processes of neurons. The cells that are damaged might die and, as far as is known, they are not replaced (although the adult spinal cord does contain stem cells). However, the functional consequences of this neuronal loss are typically modest.
  Often, the damage to spinal axons is much more important. The spinal cord is segmentally arranged and the sensory, (...)

  Definition: In closed spina bifida, unlike open spina bifida (spina bifida aperta), the bony defect of the posterior vertebral arches, the herniated meninges, and neural tissue are covered by skin.

  spinal cord paraganglioma
  Definition: Spinal cord paragangliomas are uncommon. More than 120 CNS paragangliomas have been documented, and are most frequently found in the region of the cauda equine and filum terminale, although they have also been reported in the thoracic and cervical regions.
  In a study of 30 spinal paraganglioma cases by Moran et al, 19 were located in the lumbar region, 6 in the cauda equina, 2 in the filum terminale, 2 in the thoracic region, and 1 in the cervical (...)
