Left-sided weakness and incontinence, evaluate for cord compression. Cervical spine:Alignment is anatomic. Vertebral body and intervertebral disc spaces are preserved. Mild left paracentral disc protrusion without significant spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis is present at the C6-C7 level. Otherwise no significant degenerative changes or spondylolisthesis. No evidence of cortical compression at the cervical spine level. No pathological enhancement is noted.Thoracic spine:Alignment is anatomic. Vertebral body heights and intervertebral disc spaces are preserved. No significant spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis is noted at the thoracic level. No pathological enhancement noted.Lumbar spine:Alignment is anatomic. Vertebral body heights and intervertebral disc spaces are preserved. There is a small left paracentral disc protrusion of the L5-S1 without evidence of spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis. Postoperative findings involving the posterior soft tissues and spinous processes of L1 and L2 are noted. No pathological enhancement is present.
Mild degenerative changes and postoperative findings of the spine as above, without specific findings to account for the patient's symptoms.
