Date : 00.00.00
Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzoylmn / M / 30 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzs.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O accidental injury in October 0000 with quadriplegia. Treated with traction and improved partially.
C/O weakness of grip on the right side, walks with crutches, low back pain, gait imbalance, more to the left and buckling of knees since then.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the cervical spine was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is slight loss of water content of the cervical intervertebral discs.
A small postero-central protruded disc with peridiscal osteophytes is noted at the C2-C3 level.
A small postero-central and right postero-lateral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes is noted at the C3-C4 level with right neural foraminal narrowing.
Small posterior peridiscal osteophytes are noted at the C4-C5 and C5-C6 levels.
Scan : 00000
There is a focal hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the cervical spinal cord at the C3-C4 level. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) images and represents an area of myelomalacia ? the sequelae of previous cord contusion (past H/O cervical injury).
The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
The atlanto-axial region and the cervico-medullary junction are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
1. A small postero-central protruded disc with peridiscal osteophytes at the C2-C3 level.
2. A small postero-central and right postero-lateral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C3-C4 level.
3. Altered signal in the cervical spinal cord at the C3-C4 level which may represent an area of myelomalacia ? the sequelae of previous cord contusion (past H/O cervical injury).
