Here the authors presented the first reported case of HD in North America that was successfully treated via surgical intervention.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>OBSERVATIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The patient was a 15-year boy with insidious onset upper limb weakness and atrophy. His findings were a classic presentation of HD although his complex history and relative rarity of the disease caused him to remain undiagnosed for months. After conservative management via cervical collar failed, the patient was successfully treated via C5-C7 anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. The patient\u2019s symptoms stabilized by the 3-month follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>LESSONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The diagnosis of HD is easy to miss because of the lack of reporting and widespread knowledge of this condition in North America. Thus, when presented with a case of insidious onset limb weakness in a juvenile patient, HD should be placed on the differential list and verified with cervical flexion magnetic resonance imaging. Additionally, surgical intervention should be considered a safe and effective option for HD when conservative methods have failed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/case21697","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,7]],"date-time":"2022-03-07T02:07:55Z","timestamp":1646618875000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Surgical treatment of spinal cord compression due to Hirayama disease: illustrative case"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Rohin","family":"Singh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, Scottsdale, Arizona; and"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miles","family":"Hudson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jenna H.","family":"Meyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthew T.","family":"Neal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, Scottsdale, Arizona; and"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naresh P.","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, Scottsdale, Arizona; and"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"b1","series-title":"Eur Spine J","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1201","DOI":"10.1007\/s00586-018-5545-9","article-title":"Hirayama disease","volume":"27","author":"Kieser DC","year":"2018","unstructured":"Kieser DC, Cox PJ, Kieser SCJ.
