Characteristics of CSF Velocity-Time Profile in Posttraumatic Syringomyelia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The development of syringomyelia has been associated with changes in CSF flow dynamics in the spinal subarachnoid space. However, differences in CSF flow velocity between patients with posttraumatic syringomyelia and healthy participants remains unclear. The aim of this work was to define differences in CSF flow above and below a syrinx in participants with posttraumatic ...
متن کاملPosttraumatic syringomyelia
Post-traumatic syringomyelia is a clinical syndrome of delayed progressive myelopathy often corresponding to spinal segments distant from the level of original injury. Harvey Cushing described a syringomyelic syndrome in a patient with cervical gunshot wound. He viewed hematomyelia as the pathologic substrate of both – acute and delayed post-traumatic syringomyelia. The exact incidence is unkno...
متن کاملRadiography of posttraumatic syringomyelia.
Posttraumatic syringomyelia was studied in 15 patients. Gas myelography in 12 patients showed a definite spinal cord swelling in 10 and a probable cord enlargement in two. Plain spinal computed tomography (CT) in four patients demonstrated intramedullary radiolucent zones in three. After intrathecal injection of metrizamide in 10 patients, cysts were opacified in eight. Postoperative CT in two ...
متن کاملCSF flow measurement in syringomyelia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE CSF circulation has been reported to represent a major factor in the pathophysiology of syringomyelia. Our purpose was to determine the CSF flow patterns in spinal cord cysts and in the subararachnoid space in patients with syringomyelia associated with Chiari I malformation and to evaluate the modifications of the flow resulting from surgery. METHODS Eighteen patients ...
متن کاملPosttraumatic syringomyelia: a technical note.
AIM Previous studies have not identified a preferred surgical technique to treat posttraumatic syringomyelia. Both syringopleural shunting and arachnoidolysis are used in neurosurgery practice for the surgical treatment of posttraumatic syringomyelia. In this study, we present a new technique designed to achieve a better outcome following surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS A 33-year-old man, who e...
