Top Specialty Definition: Syringomyelia (From Wikipedia , the free Encyclopedia) Syringomyelia is a disorder of the spinal cord caused by the formation of a cavity within the cord. The possible causes are trauma, tumors and congenital defects. It is most usually observed in the part of the spinal cord corresponding to the neck area. Symptoms are due to spinal cord damage and are: decreased sensation of touch, weakness and loss of muscle tissue. The diagnosis is confirmed with a spinal CT, myelogram or MRI of the spinal cord. The cavity may be reduced by surgical decompression.

    Extractions: Health education or patient education is important aspect of disease management program. Even some programs, especially some chronic disease management can go further and introduced self-management for some aspect of illness. Good example is management of arthritis. There are a variety of models for both formal and informal self-management. However, the core concepts involve engagement in self-care, improved self-monitoring, interactions with healthcare professionals and coping with disease. Self-management programs are mostly provided to people with chronic diseases like arthritis, diabetes, and some skin diseases. Patient education and self-management programs are aim to improve the efficiency and quality of the healthcare process and overall improve quality of life. It is not really about reduction in doctor visits or clinic attendances. Even sometime, an improved healthcare process can include more frequent use of services because of improved compliance.

    Extractions: COMPREHENSIVE SPINE PROGRAM COMPREHENSIVE SPINE DIAGNOSES INDEX What is syringomyelia? Accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the spinal cord is a frequent finding in patients with Chiari I Malformation. Simple distention of the ependymal-lined central canal is classically termed hydromyelia. Dissection of CSF through the ependyma to form cavitation within the substance of the spinal cord is termed syringomyelia. The distinction between these two is not possible based upon imaging studies. Therefore the term syrinx, or syringohydromyelia, is used to describe any abnormal accumulation of CSF within the spinal cord. Extension upward into the brainstem is termed syringobulbia. What are the different types of syringomyelia? 1. Syringomyelia: associated with abnormalities of the foramen magnum (e.g. Chiari I malformation), retained rhombic roof, post surgical scar 2. Primary spinal syringomyelia: cyst arises in the cord substance without tonsillar descent; may be due to trauma, tumor, or arachnoiditis What are the symptoms of communicating syringomyelia?

Glossary Other terms for syringomyelia (pronounced sir-ing-o-my-eel-ya) often used include syrinx (see-rin-x), hydromyelia (hi-dro-my-eel-ya), syringohydromyelia, The spinal cord is connected to the lower part of the brain, called the brainstem. The spinal cord is a delicate (long, thin, sausage shaped) structure that rests within the spinal canal, and is surrounded by a tough outer covering, called the dura. Normally, the spinal cord ends at about the first or second lumbar vertebra in the adult. The spinal canal is surrounded and protected by the bony structure of the spinal column (or vertebra). Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) surrounds the spinal cord and travels from the brain, down the spinal canal and back up to the brain. Normally, there is no CSF within the structure of the spinal cord, instead, the fluid surrounds the cord. The function of the CSF is to bathe and nourish the brain and spinal cord. Many nerves originate from the spinal cord, and are responsible for movement and sensation of the arms, legs and areas of the torso. Syringomyelia was first described by Antione Portal, in 1803. He described a patient who experienced numbness and loss of function of the lower extremities. A cavity, called a syrinx, was found on autopsy examination of the spinal cord.

Reduced Rate MRI Clinic Locations In Short: Syringomyelia (SM) is an extremely serious genetic condition in which cavities develop within the spinal cord near the brain, and fill with fluid. It is also known as "neck scratcher's disease", because one of its common signs is scratching in the air near the neck. SM is rare in most breeds but has become very widespread in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Researchers conservatively estimate that at least 50% of CKCSs have occipital hypoplasia, the skull bone malformation believed to cause syringomyelia. It is worldwide in scope and not limited to any country, breeding line, or kennel.

    Extractions: Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Syringomyelia is caused by a formation of a fluid-filled cavity within the spinal cord. This fluid build-up may be a result of spinal cord trauma , tumors of the spinal cord, or congenital defects. The cavity most often begins in the neck area. It expands slowly, causing progressive damage to the spinal cord due to the pressure exerted by the fluid. Symptoms result from the spinal cord damage.

    http://www.scuba-doc.com/syring.html
    
    Extractions: Syringomyelia Noncommunicating syringomyelia occurs as a complication of trauma, meningitis, hemorrhage or tumor, the cyst or syrinx developing in a segment of the spinal cord damaged by one or more of these conditions. I can find no reports that damage from a decompression accident has been related as a cause. This condition is not mentioned in Edmonds' or Bove's texts - so one will have to use associative reasoning - as we often do about situations such as this. As the body moves in it's day to day activities the syrinx or cyst expands and elongates over time, destroying the center of the cord, and can mimic the effects of a spinal decompression accident. This damage may result in pain, weakness, and stiffness in the back, shoulders, arms or legs. Other symptoms may include headaches and loss of the ability to feel extremes of hot or cold, especially in the hands and disruption in body temperature,sweating, sexual function and bladder and bowel control. Because of the difficulties in differentiating between the residual effects of a diver's decompression accident and the effects of the syrinx - it is felt that diving would be unwise unless carefully documented and evaluated on an individual basis.
