Significados de circumferential decompression em inglês

In such cases, posterior-only approaches that allow for circumferential decompression and anterior column reconstruction may be beneficial.

Simple decompression, circumferential decompression, and anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve were performed during the course of the transposition procedure.

Group A consisted the patients who received posterior decompression and group B consisted the patients who received circumferential decompression via the posterior approach.

Fourteen patients with single posterior decompression were included in group A and 35 patients who received circumferential decompression were included in group B.

Results: With elbow extension at 180°, both circumferential decompression and anterior transposition resulted in approximately 68% higher nerve strains than simple decompression.

Conclusions: Circumferential decompression via the posterior approach is an effective surgical method for thoracic spinal stenosis caused by multilevel OPLL of the thoracic spine.
