dipyridamole and Radiculopathy

dipyridamole has been researched along with Radiculopathy in 1 studies

Dipyridamole: A phosphodiesterase inhibitor that blocks uptake and metabolism of adenosine by erythrocytes and vascular endothelial cells. Dipyridamole also potentiates the antiaggregating action of prostacyclin. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p752)
dipyridamole : A pyrimidopyrimidine that is 2,2',2'',2'''-(pyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine-2,6-diyldinitrilo)tetraethanol substituted by piperidin-1-yl groups at positions 4 and 8 respectively. A vasodilator agent, it inhibits the formation of blood clots.

Radiculopathy: Disease involving a spinal nerve root (see SPINAL NERVE ROOTS) which may result from compression related to INTERVERTEBRAL DISK DISPLACEMENT; SPINAL CORD INJURIES; SPINAL DISEASES; and other conditions. Clinical manifestations include radicular pain, weakness, and sensory loss referable to structures innervated by the involved nerve root.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Can the paravertebral plexus of veins adjacent to the spinal nerve root within the narrow confines of the lateral neural canal be a collateral generator of radicular pain when no other evidence of spinal pathology is evident? A patient with complaints of intractable lumbar radiculopathy and an otherwise unremarkable clinical neuromusculoskeletal examination, as well as normal imaging and electrodiagnostic studies, is reviewed with special reference to symptomatic and paravertebral venous responses to both a Valsalva maneuver and dipyridamole infusion as imaged by magnetic venous angiography."3.71Paravertebral venous plexus distention (Batson's): an inciting etiologic agent in lumbar radiculopathy as observed by venous angiography. ( Bergeon, B; LaBan, MM; Szappanyos, BJ; Wesolowski, DP; Wilkins, JC, 2001)
