Intratumoural cyst formation in pituitary macroadenomas.

abstract：:In 12 patients syringomyelia was diagnosed using MRI. The underlying cause was a hindbrain hernia in 8 patients, a posterior fossa cyst in one case, and in 3 patients the underlying cause remained unknown. Syringo-subarachnoid shunting in 8 patients failed to decrease pain and the size of the syrinx, motor lesion and ...
