title: [Dynamics of changes in vibration sensitivity in syringomyelia].
abstract: The state of vibrational sensibility was studied in 35 patients with syringomyelia, with the aid of a special device, which evoked in the tuning fork a vibration of the same amplitude (128) in repeated studies. The indices of vibrational sensibility in patients with syringomyelia were compared to normal figures. As a norm the author employed the medium indices of vibrational sensibility in seconds in 50 normals. According to the vibrational sensibility all the patients were divided into 4 groups. The absence of vibrational perception, its drop below the norm and appearance of hyperpallesthesia corresponded to the most severe forms of the disease. In a drop of temporal indices, but not lower than the norm, the side, where the pathological process was more marked under the treatment influence, showed a restituted vibrational feeling. Disordered vibrational sensibility was found not only to the level of affected segments, but beyond them, which supports the conductive character of these disturbances.
