Intracranial cystic lesions: a review.

abstract：:Syringobulbia is an uncommon condition, usually a late complication of syringomyelia. It has predilection for the dorsolateral region of the medulla leading to damage to vestibular nuclei and their connections, as well as to the descending sympathetic fibers. Oscillopsia, nystagmus, and Horner syndrome are frequent ma...
