Secondary Spinal Cord Injury llI: Pathophysiology

Secondary Spinal Cord Injury llI: Pathophysiology

Early Ischemia and Ionic ImbalanceWithin minutes of spinal cord injury, a secondary cascade begins, progressing over hours to weeks. Vascular damage reduces blood flow, causing ischemia and mitochondrial dysfunction. ATP depletion leads to ion pump failure, membrane depolarization, sodium influx, potassium efflux, and water accumulation, resulting in cellular swelling. Increased intracellular calcium further disrupts mitochondria and accelerates cellular injury.Excitotoxicity and Neuronal...

Summary

This case study reports a rare instance of occipital Ewing's sarcoma in a child, which later spread to the spine. Early screening for central nervous system (CNS) Ewing's sarcoma metastasis is crucial.

Area of Science:

Pediatric Oncology
Neurosurgery
Radiology

Background:

Ewing's sarcoma is a primary bone cancer, predominantly affecting long bones in children.
