The thecal sac is a protective membrane that encases the spinal cord and cerebrospinal fluid within the spinal canal. It acts as a barrier to protect the spinal cord from damage or compression. Any bulging or herniation of spinal discs can put pressure on the thecal sac, potentially causing symptoms such as pain or numbness.
It is contact between the thecal sac and another mass, usually a benign osteophyte (bony spur) or disc protrusion within the spinal column.
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.
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.
The anterior thecal sac is a membrane that surrounds the spine. It acts as protection to the spinal cord and the cauda equina.
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.
The lumbar thecal sac is a membrane that surrounds the spinal cord. It is filled with cerebral spinal fluid. It is in the lower back.
What can be done for osteophyte complex with slight impressio on ventral thecal sac
The Ventral Thecal Sac encloses the spinal cord and the nerve endings of the lumbar regions thecal sac (cauda equina) and serves as a protection for both and for the entire lumbar spinal region. The ventral thecal sac contains cerebral spinal fluid and it also serves as a buffer for the cauda equina.
The narrowing of a thecal sac depends on where it is located. It might be a bulging disc or a pinched nerve.
