  • Conus Medullaris Syndrome

    Here a fracture of the T11/T12 vertebra has damaged the spinal cord at the level of the 5th Lumbar nerve.

  • Posterior Cord Syndrome

    This is a very rare incomplete injury and usually is caused by a medical mishap such as a tumour or lack of blood supply.

  • Anterior Cord Syndrome

    Caused by the fractured vertebra crushing the front of the spinal cord.

  • Central Cord Syndrome

    As we get older we develop arthritis in our neck with the ligaments, discs and joints of the neck stiffening, and osteophytes (extra bone formations) forming within the spinal canal.
