The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of surgical decompression/untethering, combined with weight bearing rehabilitation, on neurological recovery following chronic spinal cord injury.
Safety Issues:
Safety issues need to be watched are: occurrence of known and unknown undesirable incidences, moving up injury levels, loss of previously preserved neurological functions, vital physical signs, and worsening of EKG and lab results. If unforeseen issues occur, patients will be consulted to determine whether treatments will be continued.
Adverse events:
Adverse events may occur during the trail and these events will be recorded. The severity of the events and their relationship to the experimental therapy will be determined, documented and reported to the Data Monitoring and Safety Committee who will determine how these events will be handled if they occur.

| Surgery | Procedure | Surgery treatment of the injured vertebra(e), internal fixation of the vertebral column, and bilateral laminectomy for epidural decompression were followed directly by neurosurgical management, including separation of the arachnoid adhesion to restore cerebrospinal fluid flow and debridement of the spinal cord necrotic tissue with concomitant intramedullary decompression. |

| Rehabilitation | Procedure | The patients need to do intensive rehabilitation everyday. (1)The limb comprehensive training is Kunming Locomotor exercise, 60 minutes twice per day.(2)The exercise therapy includes sit-ups by 30 times, twice per day; half bridge exercise by 10 times, twice per day; backward flight movement by 10 times, twice per day; sling exercise training by 30 minutes, twice per day; and postural transfer functional training by 10 minutes, twice per day. (3)The balance training include ball toss training by 10 minutes, twice per day; and balance board training by 10 minutes, twice per day. (4)The wheelchair training will be taken 20 minutes each, twice per day. (5)The isokinetic training needs to perform 20 minutes each, twice per day. |
