Resumen

This chapter provides a comprehensive look at the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of cervical myelopathy. The causes of cervical myelopathies are divided into extrinsic (i.e., cervical spondylosis, epidural abbesses, and disc herniations) and intrinsic (i.e., viral infections, multiple sclerosis, and motor neuron disease). The genetic and epidemiologic factors that predispose patients to cervical myelopathy are discussed in this chapter. Lastly, the chapter explores treatment options and prognosis for patients with cervical myelopathy.
