It is descriptive term for the degenerative spine on CT or MRI. Central disk herniation means a central and posterior protrusion of disk material. Posterolateral disc protrusion indicates herniation of disk along the posterolateral margin of the disk to the spinal canal. Disc spur complex denotes a combined degenerative process with which the protruded disk is accompanied with adjacent bone change with spurring.
What else can I help you with?
Can early right posterolateral osteodiscal protrusion with early impingement upon the proximal right C6 cause carpal tunnel?
Yes, early right posterolateral osteodiscal protrusion at the C6 level can potentially lead to carpal tunnel syndrome. This occurs if the protrusion causes nerve root compression or alters cervical spine mechanics, leading to increased pressure on the median nerve as it travels down the arm. Additionally, muscle imbalances or altered biomechanics resulting from cervical issues can contribute to wrist and hand symptoms. However, a thorough clinical evaluation is necessary to establish a direct correlation.
What is a mild posterior central and right paramedian disc protrusion at L4-L5?
What is a L5-S1 , right paramedian protusion
What is the only sq site for lovenox?
Left and right anterolateral and posterolateral abdominal wall
What is a Prominent broad based posterior and lateral disc protrusion?
My husband just got his mri report, at c2-c3 minimal left foraminal, c3-c4-3mm posterior central protrusion,c4-c5-posterior annular bulging, c5-c6prominent posterior bulge/broad based protrusion causing right goraminal stenosis, c6-c7 small posterior protrusion.. He has sever pain in his left arm...what should we do..
What is right neural foramen?
what is disc protrusion in the right neural foramen abutting right L5 nerve root
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 does moderate broad based right lateral protrusion mean?
Moderate broad-based right lateral protrusion refers to a condition where an intervertebral disc bulges outward towards the right side, affecting a wider area of the disc rather than a focal point. This protrusion can potentially compress nearby nerves or spinal structures, leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the corresponding areas of the body. The term "moderate" indicates that the protrusion is not severe but still significant enough to warrant attention or treatment.
Foraminal disc protrusion?
Foraminal encroachment refers to that degeneration in the spinal column which causes the obstruction of the foramina.
What doessuperimposed right subarticular foraminal disc protrusion mean?
A superimposed right subarticular foraminal disc protrusion refers to a condition in which an intervertebral disc in the spine bulges out into the foramina—small openings where spinal nerves exit—specifically on the right side. This protrusion can compress nearby nerves, potentially leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas supplied by those nerves. "Superimposed" indicates that this protrusion may be occurring alongside other existing spinal issues, complicating the overall condition. Effective diagnosis and treatment are essential to address symptoms and prevent further complications.
Will you need surgery for right neuroforaminal disc protrusion herniation impinging on the right L4 nerve root?
absolutely. and it's going to be painful.
What is shallow right parcentral disc protrusion?
A shallow right paracentral disc protrusion refers to a condition where an intervertebral disc bulges slightly out of its normal space, specifically on the right side and near the center of the spine. This protrusion can potentially compress nearby spinal nerves, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the affected areas. It is typically diagnosed through imaging studies, such as an MRI, and treatment may involve physical therapy, medication, or, in some cases, surgery.
What does this mean shallow right foraminal protrusion?
A shallow right foraminal protrusion refers to a mild bulging or herniation of an intervertebral disc that extends into the foraminal space on the right side. This can potentially compress nearby nerves as they exit the spinal column, possibly leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas served by those nerves. The term "shallow" indicates that the protrusion is not severe or extensive. It is often assessed through imaging studies like an MRI.
