| ABSTRACT |
|
Authors experienced the myelotomy for the syringomyelia in 3 cases. Moreover a recent case who underwent the craniovertebral decompression with myelotomy was associated with Arnold-Chiari malformation. Post-operative courses were uneventful in two but a case with the thoracic myelotomy became paraparetic after 5 years of follow up due to the spinal arachnoiditis. It seems that the careful studies, including the ventriculography and/or C-T scan are necessary to find the hind-brain malformation and to give the appropriate management. |
