I'm not a doctor, just one who's had lots college science classes, but Central disc protrusion means that one of your spinal cord discs, the cushion between the bones, is bulging. May be due to injury, aging, Degenerative Disc Disorder, genetics, many reasons. No ventral flattening means your bulging disc appears to not be impinging or pushing on your spinal cord. BUT, please, ASK YOUR DOCTOR TO EXPLAIN, in terms you can understand. I know they talk like attorneys sometimes-"Party of the first part..", but this is your body (I assume or a loved one's) and you NEED to understand YOUR doctor. Okay?

What is right para central herniation C6?
It is a protrusion (herniation) of disc material near the center of the spine (paracentral), in this case just to the right of center. The C6 designation indicates the herniation is located in the Cervical spine (neck) at the level of the 6th cervical vertebral space (there are a total of seven cervical vertebra -- C1 through C7). A couple of useful reference/education sites are www.spineuniverse.com and www.spine-health.com. Hope this helps!Bunny
What is central and right posterolateral disc protrusion spur complex?
It is descriptive term for the degenerative spine on CT or MRI. Central disk herniation means a central and posterior protrusion of disk material. Posterolateral disc protrusion indicates herniation of disk along the posterolateral margin of the disk to the spinal canal. Disc spur complex denotes a combined degenerative process with which the protruded disk is accompanied with adjacent bone change with spurring.
What to MRI results mean if they say C5 C6 moderate central disk protrusion is present This causes complete effacement of the anterior thecal sac but no cord compression There are also mild posterior?
c5-c6 is the location of the disks in question. central means the 'middle' and protrusion means that there is some 'bulging'. effacement means 'showing' or 'opening' and anterior means the 'front'. posteriormeans the 'back'. this doesn't give you a diagnosis or complete answer to your question because the MD that ordered your mri should be the one answering your questions. hopefully, however, you have been given a little more knowlege of the 'lingo' to make your conversation with him/her a little less daunting and a little clearer. good luck and give your MD a call!
