    Cervical myelograms showed nerve root deformities, but specific imaging features did not reliably predict clinical significance. Clinical and electromyographic findings are the most accurate indicators of cervical root deformity significance.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Neurology
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Cervical nerve root deformities can be identified through myelography.
    • Determining the clinical significance of these deformities is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize cervical root deformities using myelography.
    • To assess the correlation between specific myelographic features and clinical significance.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of myelograms from 231 patients (symptomatic and asymptomatic).
    • Analysis of cervical nerve roots and adjacent subarachnoid space.
    • Comparison of imaging findings with clinical and electromyographic data.

    Main Results:

    • No strong correlation was found between specific myelographic features of root deformities and clinical significance.

  • Some suggestive features were present in a significant number of asymptomatic patients, rendering them unreliable.
  • Clinical and electromyographic findings proved to be the most accurate determinants.

    • Conclusions:

    • Myelographic features alone are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of cervical root deformities.
    • Clinical presentation and electromyography are essential for accurate diagnosis and assessment.
