title: [Clinico-roentgenologic diagnosis of spinal arachnoiditis and epiduritis].
abstract: The clinico-radiological picture of spinal arachnoiditis and epiduritis was studied in 135 patients. The disorders were expressed in the form of radicular pain, paresthesia, hyperesthesia, pareses, paralyses and pelvic disturbances. The most informative of radiological methods were pneumomyelography, myelography with myodile, sacral and transdural epidurography. Contrast radiological examinations of the membranous spaces of the spinal cord make it possible to determine the localization, severity and nature of pathological changes. Spinal arachnoiditis and epiduritis are associated with non-filling or non-uniform filling of the membranous spaces, their narrowing and deformation, non-filling and deformation of radicular pockets. The diagnosis is made by correlating clinical, laboratory and radiological findings.
