    Abstract:
    This article reviews the anatomy of the vertebral canal and its contents from a surgical perspective. The normal and pathological relationships of intradural structures are addressed. Spinal cord blood supply, metabolism, and ischemia are discussed in detail. A clinically oriented biomechanical analysis of forces acting within the spinal canal under both physiological and pathological conditions is also presented.
