Abstract
Segmental hyperhidrosis was seen in three cases of syringomyelia with Chiari malformation confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. Using the iodine-starch reaction, all three cases showed hyperhidrosis in the areas roughly corresponding to those of sensory disturbances. Two possible modes of pathogenesis are discussed: stimulation of preganglionic neurons and interference to the inhibitory tract.Entities:
