Syringomyelia as a delayed complication of lumbar-sacral adhesive arachnoiditis in Pott's disease.

Gautam Jesrani1, Jaspreet Kaur1, Monica Gupta2, Nishit Sawal1.   

Abstract

Syringomyelia is the development of a fluid-filled cyst (syrinx) within the spinal cord and is an extremely rare chronic manifestation of tuberculosis. The syrinx so formed may expand over time, causing compression or destruction of spinal tracts and surrounding nerve roots. Development of syringomyelia in a patient of Pott's disease is particularly infrequent. We report this rare case of a 31-year-old man with syringomyelia as a prolonged complication of Pott's disease. © BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2020. No commercial re-use. See rights and permissions.
