Traumatic #central_cord_syndrome (CCS) is the most common type of acute incomplete cervical spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, the researchers evaluate the functional outcome of #early_surgical_decompression (within 24 hours) for ATCCS (acute traumatic central cord syndrome), where recovery of a certain degree of ambulation, activities of daily life, pain improvement and bladder function are evaluated. The results indicate that surgical Decompression can be considered a reliable modality in the management of traumatic CCS, effectively reducing the secondary injury of the spinal cord and consequent deterioration with less hospital stay in comparison to the conservative management of these cases. #Laminectomy #Duroplasty
