| Lumbar foraminal stenosis is a common clinical problem and a significant cause of lower extremity radiculopathy. |
|
| This is particularly true for foraminal and extraforaminal disc hernias, spinal canal stenosis and when treating obese patients. |
|
| Bone resection continues upwards until the foraminal ligament is elevated from the bone. |
|
| However, it has limited use for the decompression of accompanying neural foraminal stenosis. |
|
| Anatomically, a spinal canal with stenosis can be divided into central, lateral and foraminal. |
|
| Lumbar foraminal stenosis or extraforaminal stenosis is a common cause of spinal cord radiculopathy. |
|
| In cases of severe degeneration and foraminal stenosis I can operate on several levels. |
|
| In foraminal and extraforaminal disc hernias, the target is no longer the disc but the foramen. |
|
| Laryngeal cysts have been classified into saccular, ductal, and thyroid cartilage foraminal cysts. |
|
| Examples of poor indications for trigger point therapy are genuine radicular lesions or advanced spinal or foraminal stenosis in the lower lumbar segments, also with secondary trigger points in the gluteal or hip muscles. |
|
| Even though the contribution of endoscopy may seem to be minimal in common situations, with experience it appears that its use has transformed the problem of foraminal disc herniations and narrow lumbar canals. |
|
| When the size of the IVF narrows, it is also described as foraminal stenosis. |
|
| Foraminal fat could not be identified in any of the neuroforamen. |
