Abstract:
:Forty-two patients who underwent decompressive surgery for cervical spondylotic myelopathy were studied. The pre- and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and the Japanese Orthopedic Association score were analyzed to evaluate whether the different appearances of intramedullary high-signal intensity on T2-weighted MRI are related to the surgical prognosis. Magnetic resonance imaging signal intensities were classified as type 0 if no intramedullary high-signal intensity on T2-weighted images was noted, type 1 if high-signal intensity involved only one segment, and type 2 if high-signal intensity extended over two segments. Statistical analyses of the recovery ratio showed that type 0 and type 1 intramedullary high-signal intensity indicates better prognosis than type 2.
