- W138398049 abstract "This chapter describes the miscellaneous neurological diseases affecting infants and children. Syringomyelia is a chronic disease characterized by the presence of long cavities surrounded by glia in the grey matter of the spinal cord, most commonly in the cervical cord. They may also appear in the lumbar cord and may extend upward into the medulla oblongata and even into the pons. As a rule, the cavities seem to originate from the posterior horn. The expansion of the cavities, which contain a clear or yellow fluid, and the surrounding gliosis lead to compression of the anterior horns and the long tracts of the spinal cord with degenerative changes in these areas. Symptoms usually start in the hands. The first evidence of the disease is usually impaired pain and temperature sense in the fingers, leading to painless slow-healing wounds. The patient may, however, be unaware of these abnormalities until motor symptoms, that is, weakness and atrophy of the small hand muscles, have also appeared. The same type of symptoms may eventually develop in the feet or, rarely, start there. Weakness, atrophy, and fasciculations of the tongue and weakness of the throat muscles are signs of syringobulbia. Painless dislocation and destruction of joints, particularly the shoulder joint, is another characteristic feature of the disease." @default.
