Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This article considers the entities of cervical radiculopathy and myelopathy. Beginning with a brief historical note and neuroanatomy review of the cord and nerve roots, the discussion proceeds with analysis of symptoms and signs of cervical root disease and then compressive cervical myelopathy. A discussion of diagnostic testing and a differential diagnosis follows. A brief review of conservative medical therapy concludes the article. |
