Introduction: Congenital vertebral malformations are common developmental abnormalities in screw-tailed brachycephalic dog breeds. Subsequent vertebral instability and/or vertebral canal stenosis caused by these malformations can lead to spinal cord compression manifesting in pain, paraparesis, ataxia and/or paralysis. Various methods for spinal stabilization are in common use.

Autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets type 2 (ARHR2) is an uncommon hereditary form of rickets characterised by chronic renal phosphate loss and impaired bone mineralisation. This results from compound heterozygous or homozygous pathogenic variants in ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), a key producer of extracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and an inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor23 (FGF23). ENPP1 deficiency impacts FGF23 and increases its activity.

Background: Anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) is a standard surgical procedure for cervical spondylosis with spinal cord compression (CSWSCC), especially in patients with intensity on T2-weighted imaging high signal (T2WIHS). The titanium mesh cage (TMC) utilized in this procedure is essential in stabilizing the spine; however, the optimal slotting width of the TMC remains unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of TMC slotting width on the clinical and radiological outcomes of ACCF in patients with spinal cord compression type cervical spondylosis with intensity on T2WIHS (CST2WIHS).

Introduction: Cervical stenosis (CS) is the pathologic narrowing of the central canal of the cervical spine. It is often incidentally discovered. It is unclear whether pre-existing CS can lead to worse outcomes and higher incidences of post-traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).

Background: The inability to localize pain generators often results in failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS). Structural imaging can identify multiple and/or noncausative abnormalities. Molecular imaging of glucose transporters offers the opportunity to localize metabolically active sites.
