title: [A surgical treatment method in syringomyelia].
abstract: The author provides pathogenetic evidence for surgical treatment of syringomyelia. Based on the experience gained with surgical treatment of syringomyelia, gives a critical assessment of the hydrodynamic theory of the formation of intraspinal cavities. Provides the data obtained during examination of 127 patients suffering from genuine syringomyelia with the aid of cystography and NMR tomography. The communicating and non-communicating disease pattern were established. The short- and long-term results of surgical treatment were elucidated in 109 patients operated on. It is assumed that derangement of hydrodynamics plays a definite part in the disease pathogenesis. The hydrodynamic alterations include not only circulatory disorders but also have the signs of general functional insufficiency of the CSF system. The surgical treatment method is aimed at the correction of the hydrodynamic alterations, being one of the constituent parts in the whole complex of treatment measures for syringomyelia.
