    Abstract:
    The perimedular venous system and the anatomotopographic features of the root veins at the level of the lower half of the spinal cord were studied on 15 specimens. Fifty patients with ischemic affection of the spinal cord due to compression of a large root vein by Schmorl's body in the lumbar segment were examined. The diagnosis was verified in all patients by pneumomyelography and during operation. The specific features of the clinical picture of diskogeno-venous radiculomyeloischemia are pointed out. The indications for neurosurgical intervention in these patients are discussed from analysis of the outcomes of operative treatment.
