Abnormal bone growth: You have some abnormal bone growth in your cervical vertebrae that is pressing on the sac that surrounds the spinal cord. No foraminal stenosis means the nerve roots coming out of the spinal cords are not being compressed.

Spinal stenosis: That is another way to describe a condition known as spinal stenosis. One way to say it is that you have developed some bone spurs (oseochondral bars) that are narrowing (narrowing equals stenosis) the central part of the nerve canal but not the for amen. I would discuss your findings and treatment options with your doctor.
