  • Title: A Poorly Known Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunt Complication: Miyazaki Syndrome.
    Author: Caruso R, Wierzbicki V, Marrocco L, Pesce A, Piccione E.
    Journal: World Neurosurg; 2015 Sep; 84(3):834-8. PubMed ID: 25913430.
    Abstract:
    We studied a poorly known form of cerebrospinal fluid hypotension characterized by cervical myelopathy, a considerable growth in volume of the venous plexus of the cervical spine, and absence of headache. This form was first described by Miyazaki. We reported a case brought to our attention, reviewed the literature, and formulated etiopathogenic theories that might explain all the various clinical aspects of this pathology.
