MR imagemorphology is in favour of early marginal osteophytes at few levels. mildbroad disc bulge at l4-l5 causing minimal thecal sac indentation
posterior disc osteophyte at c5 c6 mild indentation on anterior thecal sac. there is uncinate spurring with left formaminal narrowing c5 c6 . would this require surgery?
These results on an MRI report mean a few different things. First is that there is generalized bulging of the lower discs of the neck. Second is that there bone spurs which have grown which are putting pressure on the thecal sac which can cause symptoms severe enough to require surgery in some cases.
Disc Bulge at c5 c6 causing indentation over thecal sac and mild left nueral compromise is it dangerous situation
i was hit by a heavy metal door on the right side of my back from the top right all the way down just behind the shoulder blade that sent me free falling forward made sudden stop to keep from falling to the ground.
Thecal sac flattening occurs when a herniated disc has into the spinal canal that it is pushing on the thecal sac. The thecal sac is the membrane of dura mater that surrounds the spinal cord and the cauda equina.
The thecal sac is a normal part of the human anatomy and doesn't need to be cured.
The thecal sac is a normal part of the human body. It is not a condition that needs to be cured.
The narrowing of a thecal sac depends on where it is located. It might be a bulging disc or a pinched nerve.
A thecal sac deformity is usually associated with a herniated disc, however some thecal sac deformities are congenital. If the deformity is associated with a herniated disc, surgery may be recommended.
You have protrusion of the disc between thoracic six and seventh vertebrae. This protrusion has created indentation on the sac of dura matter on the anterolateral region of the spinal cord. This can compress your spinal cord.
The thecal sac is the covering for the spinal cord. This can be seen on an MRI. Impingement means that something is pressing on it.
