A bulging anulus is not-quite-round ring. "Minimally bulging" means that the ring is nearly round. If that slight bulge is on the left side, then the ring is slightly bulging to the left of center.

What is a left eccentric disc bulge at c6 c7?

With degenerative disc disease, disc bulging occurs with flattening out of the disc and subsequent spreading out. Typical bulging presents symmetrical, but sometimes a protrusion will develop that is eccentric, ie., asymmetrical bulging. An eccentric protrusion will be to one side, in this case left, sometimes causing neurologic symptoms on that side, sometimes not. A protrusion is less than 3 mm, whereas a herniation exceeds 3 mm.

What is an eccentric disk bulge to the left at L-3-L-4?

An eccentric disk bulge to the left at the L3-L4 vertebral level refers to a condition where the intervertebral disk between the third and fourth lumbar vertebrae protrudes or bulges outwards, predominantly to the left side. This bulging may compress nearby spinal nerves or the spinal cord, potentially causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs. The term "eccentric" indicates that the bulge is not uniform but rather skewed to one side. Such conditions are often assessed through imaging studies like MRI and may require conservative or surgical treatment depending on severity.

What is the meaning of asymmetrical annular disk bulging more at the left mildly impressing epidural fat and both nerve roots especially left one?

Asymmetrical annular disk bulging refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc bulges outward unevenly, with more pronounced bulging on the left side. This bulging can compress surrounding structures, such as the epidural fat and nerve roots, particularly affecting the left nerve root in this case. Such changes may lead to symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas served by the affected nerve. This condition is often associated with degenerative disc disease or injury and may require further evaluation and management.


A sentence with the word eccentric in it?

The man from the bank did not realize that he was eccentric; rather, he believed that most of the other people associated with him were quite eccentric. He went to great lengths to attempt to convince all the other people that they were perfectly normal. Since they too thought themselves as being normal, that left only one person (from the bank) who was eccentric but unaware of it.

What is encroachment of the neutral foramen on the left at L3-4 atrributed to disc bulging and what is transitional lumbosacral segment at L5-S1 associated with mild disc bulging?

Encroachment of the neutral foramen on the left at L3-4 due to disc bulging indicates that the intervertebral disc is protruding and compressing the nerve root exit point, potentially leading to symptoms like pain or numbness in the corresponding lower limb. A transitional lumbosacral segment at L5-S1 suggests an anatomical variation where the L5 vertebra may exhibit characteristics of the sacrum, which can predispose this area to abnormal stress and mild disc bulging. This bulging may further contribute to nerve root irritation or compression at this transitional segment.


Can you see l4-l5 asymmetic disc bulge of ct scan?

Typical bulging presents symmetrical, but sometimes a protrusion will develop that is eccentric, ie., asymmetrical bulging.

What is eccentric left ventricular hypertrophy?

Ventricular hypertrophy means a thickening of the ventricle walls. This can then be described as eccentric or concentric. Eccentric hypertrophy is where the wall thickens but the ventricle itself dilates therefore the wall is thickened but the ventricular chamber remains the same size. Concentric hypertrophy is where the wall thickens which then makes the internal ventricular chamber smaller.
