Holocord myelopathy with thoracic stenosis: case report and hypothesis.

Abstract:

STUDY DESIGN:Case report OBJECTIVE:To examine the resolution of holocord myelopathy based on the hypothesis of altered cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics. SETTING:Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Korea. METHOD:We describe a case of thoracic stenosis with holocord myelopathy, which suggests an alternative mechanism for the myelopathy. RESULT:Decompression of the thoracic stenosis resulted in the resolution of holocord myelopathy. CONCLUSION:Myelopathy may be caused by altered CSF dynamics and this type of myelopathy seems to be interstitial edema. Improvement of altered CSF flow dynamics could resolve this type of myelopathy.
