Abstract
Pessimistic attitude regarding spinal cord wounds has been recounted. Gradual shift of opinion has led to increased number of laminectomies and fairly encouraging results. Unreliability of clinical signs and x-rays as to cord section is emphasized. Prognosis as to life and return of function after laminectomy is evaluated. Indications for laminectomy and hemi-laminectomy are described. A careful and exacting study, care and rehabilitation program is indicated, and may provide a clue for further improvement.
