So problems like stenosis involving the cervical spine, again unlike the lumbar spine, can result in devastating problems such as quadriplegia. The symptoms of cervical stenosis can be subtle and are often missed, even by health care providers. [seniorliving.org]

The well-known "Lhermitte sign" does not occur constantly. Patients describe the attacks as a sudden generalized electric shock in the arms and trunk, particularly when the head is bent. Diagnosis "Cervical myelopathy" is a clinical diagnosis. [aerzteblatt.de]

Neurologic findings were significant, with upper and lower extremity hyperreflexia bilaterally and positive Romberg's test, Lhermitte's sign, and Hoffmann's sign. [en.wikibooks.org]

Spasticity, enhanced reflexes and pyramidal tract symptoms are characteristics of this disease, while muscular fasciculation is regarded as untypical. The disturbances in sensitivity are mostly unrelated to the dermatome. [aerzteblatt.de]

Often, cervical stenosis with myelopathy is associated with some degree of cervical instability, and flexion/extension lateral cervical spine x-rays are useful to rule out abnormal motion and instability. [spinepainbegone.com]
