  • Title: Experimental cervical myelopathy. Effects of ischemia and compression of the canine cervical spinal cord.
    Author: Gooding MR, Wilson CB, Hoff JT.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1975 Jul; 43(1):9-17. PubMed ID: 1141988.
    Abstract:
    The authors report experiments designed to test the effect of regional ischemia induced by selective vascular ligations and anterior compression of the cervical cord at two adjacent segments (C-4, C-5) in the same dog. They conclude that local ischemia of the cervical cord, caused by local deformation, when superimposed on a regional reduction in spinal cord blood flow, accounts for the myelopathy of cervical spondylosis whether produced experimentally in animals or occurring naturally in man.
