What is compression of the dural sac?
What is compression of the ventral dural sac?
What does flattening of the dural sac mean?
Flattening of the Dural sac is something that can be observed in patients who suffer from muscular atrophy of distal upper extremities. This means the Dural sac that encloses the spine is restricted and could cause many different things.
Define impingement upon dural sac and to a lesser extent the cord?
The dural sac covers the spine. Typical causes of dural sac impingement typically include bulging discs, herniated discs, or osteophytes. These conditions can also affect the spinal cord.
The dural sac end on what vertebral level?
S3

Disc Bulge at c5 c6 causing indentation over thecal sac and mild left nueral compromise is it dangerous situation
The dural sinuses are located in the?
dural folds
What is a l4-5 central disc herniation with mild ventral impression on the fecal sac?
An L4-5 central disc herniation refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc between the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae protrudes into the spinal canal, potentially compressing nearby structures. A "mild ventral impression on the fecal sac" indicates that this herniation is creating a slight indentation on the dural sac, which contains the spinal cord and nerve roots, but the compression is not severe. This condition may cause symptoms such as lower back pain, leg pain, or numbness, depending on the extent of nerve involvement. Treatment options can include physical therapy, medications, or in some cases, surgical intervention if symptoms persist.
What does right paracentral disc protrusion at T6-7 with moderate effacement of right anterolateral aspect of thecal sac mean?
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.
What is the space created when the dural layers separates?
The space created when the dural layers separate is called a dural venous sinus. These sinuses are responsible for draining blood and cerebrospinal fluid from the brain and are located between the layers of the dura mater.
How many pairs of dentate ligaments are in the human body?
There are two pairs of dentate ligaments in the human body, one pair for each hemisphere of the brain. These ligaments stabilize the spinal cord within the dural sac and prevent excessive movement.
What is indentation of the thecal sac?
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.
What is a Small disc protrusion C5-6 vertebrae with mild compression deformity of dural sac?
A small disc protrusion at the C5-6 vertebrae means that the disc between these two vertebrae is slightly bulging. This protrusion is causing mild compression on the dural sac, which is the protective covering around the spinal cord and nerve roots. It may lead to symptoms like neck pain, arm pain, or numbness related to the affected nerve roots.
