  • Title: [Magnetic resonance in the neuroradiologic diagnosis of syringomyelia].
    Author: Dulić S, Ledić S.
    Journal: Vojnosanit Pregl; 1998; 55(3):271-8. PubMed ID: 9720442.
    Abstract:
    Syringomyelia is the chronic progressive disease which etiology has still been discussed. The diagnosis and differential diagnosis of all SM types using magnetic resonance as specific and most sensitive method of examination have been presented in the study for the first time in our country. In two-year period since the introduction of this examination method in our Institute we examined 25 patients with 3 primary congenital and 22 with secondary SM, among whom 15 had post-traumatic and 7 had traumatic forms. All the changes characteristic for syringomyelia in neuroradiologic diagnosis were described in details. Magnetic resonance is primary and superior neuroradiologic method in all spinal processes for the discovery of neurologic, undefined myelopathic changes, such as SM. The methods of micro-surgical operative treatment are not the subject of this study.
