Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from the lower back through the hips, buttocks, and down each leg. While it usually affects only one leg, symptoms in both legs are also commonly observed.
If you are experiencing persistent leg pain, tingling, or weakness, it may be time to consult a specialist. Dr. Vijaymahantesh Pujari, neurosurgeon in Hubli, explains everything you need to know about sciatica—from causes to treatment options.
Split Cord Malformation (SCM) is a rare congenital condition in which the spinal cord is split into two distinct hemicords. This anomaly can lead to significant neurological issues if left untreated. Although commonly diagnosed in childhood, SCM may also present in adults who experience neurological symptoms or undergo spinal imaging for unrelated issues.
In this article, Dr. Vijaymahantesh Pujari, an experienced neurosurgeon in Hubli, provides a detailed overview of SCM, its types, clinical features, diagnosis, and available treatment options.
Spinal tumors are abnormal growths (neoplasms) that develop in the vertebral column or the spinal cord. They can cause severe complications, including chronic back pain, neurological deficits, and mobility issues. Early diagnosis and advanced surgical techniques significantly improve patient outcomes.
The spine supports the body and helps to stand, sit, bend, move, and spin. The spine, which protects the spinal cord from injury, extends from the base of the skull to the lower end of the back. It is shaped like an “S”. It has 33 bones interconnected to each other.
These vertebrae are numbered and divided into four areas: cervical vertebrae (near the neck), thoracic vertebrae (upper back), lumbar vertebrae (lower back), sacrum (extreme lower back – connecting the spine to the hip), and also the tailbone coccyx of the spine. Only 24 of these bones move because the sacrum and tailbone are fused.
