21/02/2012 Spinal Injury - Do we have to operate?
This will be delivered by Dr Hannes Bergmann DrVetMed DipECVS MRCVS
Intervertebral disk disease is a relatively common presentation in general practice. Degeneration of intervertebral disks may result in protrusion or extrusion of disk material into the spinal canal, causing spinal cord compression.
Clinical signs ranging from apparent pain to complete transverse myelopathy. The decision to treat a spinal cord compression conservatively or surgically depends on the degree of neurological deficits.
This lecture will cover how to approach these cases systematically, and will describe details of non-surgical and surgical treatment options.
7.30 for Buffet. 8.00 - 9.30pm lecture
Cost: Single Lecture - £5 per person from a Vets Now member Practice or Referring Practice, £10 per person from all other practices.
