Cervical myelopathy results from compression of the spinal cord in the neck (cervical area of the spine). Symptoms of cervical myelopathy may include problems with fine motor skills, pain or stiffness in the neck, loss of balance, and trouble walking. MRI scans are the preferred diagnostic method for cervical myelopathy, but other methods can ...
The long-term prognosis is less evident for this disease. Many patients witness a steady deterioration, although others experience from long stretches of symptom stability with occasional exacerbations. (3) This is a change that occurs with age and occurs in many people, and there is no preventive method.
Conditions that can cause kyphosis include:

Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a neck condition that arises when the spinal cord becomes compressed — or squeezed — due to the wear-and-tear changes that occur in the spine as we age.
Cervical myelopathy results from compression of the spinal cord in the neck (cervical area of the spine). Symptoms of cervical myelopathy may include problems with fine motor skills, pain or stiffness in the neck, loss of balance, and trouble walking.
Cervical myelopathy is frequently caused by compression of the spinal cord in the neck (cervical spine) due to stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck) that creates pressure on the spinal cord.
ICD-10 code M48. 02 for Spinal stenosis, cervical region is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Dorsopathies .
Causes of myelopathy include spinal stenosis, spinal trauma and spinal infections, as well as autoimmune, oncological, neurological and congenital disorders. Myelopathy can be cervical and thoracic; cervical myelopathy is the most prevalent. Myelopathy is typically a gradual degenerative process affecting older adults.
Cervical spondylosis without myelopathy is a condition where wear and tear accumulate in your neck, without putting pressure on the spinal cord. The spine is a column of bones called vertebrae, which support your body. In between the vertebrae are spongy tissues called discs. The discs act to cushion your spine.
