Hypothesis on the pathophysiology of syringomyelia based on analysis of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging of Chiari-I malformation patients

2023-08-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Despite several hypotheses, our understanding of syringomyelia’s pathophysiology remains limited. The hypothesis proposed by Oldfield et al. suggests that piston-like movement of the cerebellar tonsils propels the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) into the syrinx via the spinal perivascular space. However, a significant question remains unanswered: how does the CSF enter and stay in the syrinx, which...
