Alignment of the cervical spine is normal. Cord signal is normal. Disc signal is normal.
Fracture of the spinous process of C7 is again demonstrated with surrounding bone oedema. There is also oedema in the subcutaneous fat posterior to the spinous process at this level.Disc/osteophyte complex at C5/6 and C6/7 with ligamentum flavum hypertrophy results in moderate canal stenosis with a thin cleft of CSF dorsal to the cord. The complex also results in severe narrowing of the left C6/7 neural exit foramen. There is no evidence of ligamentous disruption.
Conclusion:
C7 spinous process fracture. No evidence of ligamentous injury.
Degenerative change at C5/6 and C6/7 results in moderate canal stenosis and severe narrowing of the left C6/7 neural exit foramen.
