Syringomyelia — Anatomy and Lesions of the Spinal Cord
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Syringomyelia is characterised by progressive abnormal CSF accumulation in the spinal cord. It causes dissociated suspended anaesthesia affecting pain and temperature sensation predominantly in the upper limbs. Etiology is unclear. There are many theories proposed but the accepted fact is that it is a manifestation of an underlying pathology rather than being a disease itself. Treatment of the primary cause often leads to regression of the syrinx.

Therefore it seems that administration of VA during early pregnancy may affect on neural tube and adjacent tissues. The goal of pr...
متن کاملSyringomyelia produced by intramedullary fluid injection in dogs.
Acute cord cavities have been produced by injection of saline or cerebrospinal fluid into the spinal cords of five beagle dogs. The lesions resemble syringomyelia as seen in the human. The lesions are described and the significance of the findings in supporting a hydrodynamic concept for communicating syringomyelia in the human are discussed.
