Status post T10-T11 discectomy, persistent RLE giving way. Compared to 7/30/2014, interval post surgical changes of discectomy and right-sided posterior spinal fusion at the T10-T11 is seen. Susceptibility hardware slightly limits evaluation, however, no residual spinal canal stenosis is appreciated. No epidural collections. There is subtle T2 hyperintensity in the right aspect of the thoracic cord (axial T2 series 9 image 26) which may have been present on the preoperative study but not well appreciable due to the stenosis.There is moderate left T11-T12 neural foraminal narrowing related to disc-osteophyte complex. The vertebral column alignment is anatomic. The vertebral body and disc space heights are preserved. The vertebral bone marrow signal is unremarkable. The paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
