Based on the extent of anterior dural displacement on neck-flexed cervical magnetic resonance imaging, patients were classified as anterior dural displacement across the C5 vertebra and anterior dural displacement at C5 vertebra and below. The disease progression at 1 year was correlated with the distribution of neurogenic potentials and the extent of anterior dural displacement.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twenty-eight patients (mean age, 17.41 \u00b1 2.30 years; all males) were included. Eleven (39.2%), 17 (60.7%), and 22 (78%) patients were in proximal, distal, and contralateral groups, respectively. Twenty-three (82%) had anterior dural displacement across the C5 vertebra, whereas 5 (17%) had anterior dural displacement at C5 vertebra and below. Ipsilateral disease progression was seen in 15 (53%) and contralateral progression in 25 (89%) (new onset in 7 [25%]). No patient showed progression in shoulder\/arm muscles. The proximal group had a significantly larger extent of anterior dural displacement. However, there was no correlation of disease progression with either the distribution of neurogenic motor unit potentials or the extent of cervical dural displacement on neck flexion.<\/jats:p>\n
