Abstract

Five cases, aged from 39 to 54 years, which showed the segmental sign with cervical disc herniation, were investigated. All of them initially complained of numbness and/or sensory disturbance of a unilateral upper extremity. Their symptoms showed the segmental sign one or two levels below the protruded disc level. The differential diagnosis between these and radiculopathy cases was difficult by neurological sign only, although MRI in addition to the neurological sign was extremely useful.
