How is spinal cord ischemic disease caused?

summary

Spinal cord ischemic disease is mainly caused by myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, aortic rupture, aortography, thoracic and spinal surgery, severe hypotension, atherosclerosis, syphilitic arteritis, tumor, arachnoid adhesion, etc. it can be divided into spinal cord transient ischemic attack and spinal cord infarction. How is spinal cord ischemic disease caused? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

How is spinal cord ischemic disease caused?

Spinal cord ischemia can occur in the aortic angiography or aortic aneurysm resection of blood supply interference. Sometimes it can be caused by aortic atherosclerosis, spinal vascular malformation, microembolization, vasospasm and insufficient blood supply. Others such as syphilitic spinal arteritis, lumbar spinal stenosis, spinal cord trauma, polycythemia, venous thrombosis, systemic diseases caused by hypotension can lead to spinal cord ischemia.

MRI can show local thickening, hemorrhage or infarction of spinal cord, and vascular malformation may be found after enhancement. Myelography can determine the location of hematoma, show the location and range of abnormal vessels on the surface of spinal cord, but can not distinguish the types of lesions. Selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA) of spinal cord is of great value in the diagnosis of spinal cord vascular malformation. It can clearly show the size, shape, location, range, type, feeding artery and drainage vein of the malformation, which is very helpful for guiding surgery or interventional therapy.

matters needing attention

Pay attention to strengthen nutrition, eat more high protein, high vitamin and cellulose food to improve the body's tissue repair ability, pay attention to avoid high salt and high fat food, so as not to cause high blood consistency and further aggravate the ischemic symptoms, pay attention to avoid spicy and warm food, such as wine, pepper, dried ginger, pepper, cinnamon, etc., avoid drinking, avoid strong tea, hot pepper, etc Coffee and other stimulating food.
