About The Webinar
Cervical spondylomyleopathy (CSM) is a multifactorial disease characterised by cervical spinal cord compression secondary to vertebral canal stenosis. The stenosis results from vertebral malformation which may or may not be associated with secondary degenerative changes of structures surrounding the spinal cord. The aetiology of CSM is not fully understood and as it stands, we have a limited understanding of what we are treating. Many questions remain unanswered about the pathogenesis of CSM, the natural progression of the disease, and the role of medical treatment as opposed to the various types of surgical options considered for this condition.
