Spinal Cord Compression

Spinal cord compression takes place while a mass places pressure at the cord. Compression can broaden anywhere alongside the spinal twine from the neck to the lower backbone. Spinal wire compression develops at the same time as the spinal twine is compressed via bone fragments from a vertebral fracture, a tumor, abscess, ruptured intervertebral disc or unique lesion. It is regarded as a clinical emergency unbiased of its purpose, and calls for quick prognosis and treatment to save you lengthy-time period incapacity due to irreversible spinal cord harm. Symptoms suggestive of twine compression are decrease again ache, a dermatome of expanded sensation, paralysis of limbs underneath the level of compression, decreased sensation below the level of compression, urinary and fecal incontinence and/or urinary retention. Signs suggestive of cord compression are lower back ache, a dermatome of expanded sensation, paralysis of limbs under the extent of compression, reduced sensation beneath the extent of compression, urinary and fecal incontinence and/or urinary retention. Surgical treatment is indicated in localised compression as long as there are a few hopes of regaining function. It's also every now and then indicated in patients with little hope of regaining features but with out of control ache. Postoperative radiation is delivered inside 2–3 weeks of surgical decompression. Emergency radiation therapy is the mainstay of treatment for malignant spinal twine compression. It's miles are very effective as pain control and nearby disease are manipulated. Some tumours are exceedingly sensitive to chemotherapy  and may be handled with chemotherapy alone.
