Abstract
The authors report a case of secondary worsening of neurological symptoms in a patient 2 months after cord injury at T5 causing paraplegia. The MRI showed myeolomalacia, which appears as cord oedema, located in the grey matter, extending increasingly from the initial lesion (eighth thoracic vertebra) to the bulb. This cord lesion known as grey matter cytotoxic oedema, evolved into a syringomyelic cavity.
