Thoracic radiculopathy represents an uncommon spinal disorder that is frequently overlooked in the evaluation of spinal pain syndromes. Degenerative disc disease and diabetes mellitus may frequently cause radiculopathy at the thoracic level. Electromyography and magnetic resonance imaging are useful in the evaluation of radiculopathy and thoracic spinal pain syndromes. Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a procedure that may be used in the treatment of thoracic spinal pain syndromes. Surgical intervention for thoracic radiculopathy usually is reserved for patients with progressive myelopathy and neurologic compromise.
胸神经根病是一种罕见的脊柱疾病，在评估脊柱疼痛综合征时常常被忽视。椎间盘退变和糖尿病可能经常导致胸段神经根病。肌电图和磁共振成像在评估神经根病和胸段脊柱疼痛综合征方面很有用。经皮椎体成形术是一种可用于治疗胸段脊柱疼痛综合征的手术。胸神经根病的手术干预通常仅适用于患有进行性脊髓病和神经功能损害的患者。
