Medical - Medical (general) | | Dutch term or phrase: artrotische haken | From a medical report:
"Halswervelkolom. De opbouw van de wervels is normaal. Wel is er een verstreken cervicale lordose. De tussenwervelruimten C5/C6 en C6/C7 zijn versmald met **artrotische haken** aan de voorzijde van de wervels."
Is there any such thing as "arthrotic hooks"? (I can't find it on Google.) And what are they supposed to be?
Thanks for any help! |
