DUPONT INSTITUTE WILMINGTON, DELAWARE CASE HISTORY: HISTORY: J.G. is a ten year old female who presented to the Institute with a spinal curvature noted in a routine camp physical. She had no neurologic complaints. Her birth, medical, and developmental history were all unremarkable. Her father has a vague history of spinal curvature. PHYSICAL EXAM: Physical examination was significant for a moderate left thoracic rib prominence as well as absent abdominal reflexes in the upper and lower quadrants on the left side. XRAYS: A 24 degree left thoracic curve from T5 - Tl1 was noted on scoliosis spine films.With the asymmetric abdominal reflexes and high thoracic left curve she was sent for an MRI scan. This revealed a large syringomyelia with dilatation in the lower cervical and upper thoracic area. Also noted was an Arnold-Chiari malformation. TREATMENT: She was referred to a neurosurgeon who performed a posterior fossa decompression. She tolerated this well.

    Extractions: Subscribe now >> Syringomyelia (sear-IN-go-my-EEL-ya) is a disorder in which a cyst forms within the spinal cord. This cyst, called a syrinx, expands and elongates over time, destroying the center of the spinal cord. Since the spinal cord connects the brain to nerves in the extremities, this damage results in pain, weakness, and stiffness in the back, shoulders, arms, or legs. Other symptoms may include headaches and a loss of the ability to feel extremes of hot or cold, especially in the hands. Each patient experiences a different combination of symptoms. Other, more common disorders share the early symptoms of syringomyelia. In the past, this has made diagnosis difficult. The advent of one outpatient test, however, called magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), has significantly increased the number of syringomyelia cases diagnosed in the beginning stages of the disorder. About 21,000 American men and women have syringomyelia, with symptoms usually beginning in young adulthood. Signs of the disorder tend to develop slowly, although sudden onset may occur with coughing or straining. If not treated surgically, syringomyelia often leads to progressive weakness in the arms and legs, loss of hand sensation, and chronic, severe pain.

    Extractions: Also known as syringomyelia and hydromyelia I will use the common simpler name of syrinx . Essentially, a syrinx is a fluid collection in the spinal cord. There are many causes of this such as hydrocephalus Chiari Malformation , trauma, tethered spinal cord , tumor and a very large number without any clear cause, the so-called idiopathic . These collections are usually similar to spinal fluid . They can cause symptoms in two main ways. One is due to the direct pressure of the fluid collection on the spinal cord. The symptoms will then be related to the level of the spinal cord at which the collection is. It may cause weakness, numbness, stiffness, pain, scoliosis, and incontinence to name a few. These symptoms usually come on quite gradually. The other way the symptoms may be found is due to the underlying cause of the syrinx. For instance, a syrinx may be caused by a Chiari Malformation, and the symptom may be one of headaches or neck pain even though the syrinx may be lower in the spinal cord. The important thing is for the physician to recognize the possibilities and perform the appropriate tests. The availability of MRI has greatly improved our ability to both diagnose and follow these collections. Once one is identified it is usually prudent to study the entire nervous system looking for associated abnormalities which may influence treatment. Once it is determined that the syrinx is of clinical significance (causing problems such injury to the spinal cord or progressive scoliosis) the only treatment available is surgery.

    Extractions: There are several types of SM, including SM that occurs after spinal cord injury. Research studies have examined the location, size, shape and type of cavity in many different cases. These studies have found that a syrinx that forms after a spinal cord injury almost always appears at the site of the original injury. The syrinx may also extend several spinal segments above or below the level of injury. The shape of cavities, as shown by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), is also variable. There may be one oblong cavity or a large cavity may have several oblong compartments that are connected. Or there may be several separate cavities that have nerve tissue between them. The ends of the cavities may have a round, bulb-like shape or may stretch down to a thin strand. Currently, SM is diagnosed following physical examination, history and progression of symptoms, and MRI of the spinal cord. The fluid-filled cavity usually shows up clearly on the MRI, revealing the size and location of the syrinx. It was generally believed that SM symptoms began long after the initial SCI, but recent studies suggest that syrinx-related symptoms may begin as early as two months after injury. TREATMENT The question of when and how to treat SM is not easy to answer, and different physicians take different approaches. Research studies do agree that it is important for the person with SM or suspected SM to find a physician who is knowledgeable about SM, including a neurosurgeon who has treated multiple cases of SM. A university hospital or rehabilitation clinic with an SCI unit is a reasonable place to start a physician search.
