We have examined a clinical case concerning a patient who, five years after a spinal cord injury, showed a series of symptoms due to the presence of a intramedullary cyst according to neurologists' general opinion. They think this cavitation is a development of acute myelomalacic cores or of a central haemorrhage. The extension of the cavities is regarded as a result of trasmission of venous pressure, brought about by coughing, straining and sneezing, to the spinal cord and of tethering of the cord at the side of trauma by dense arachnoidal adhesions, hence its adaptability to the extremes of movements is hampered.
我们检查了一个临床病例，该患者在脊髓损伤五年后，根据神经科医生的普遍意见，因髓内囊肿的存在出现了一系列症状。他们认为这种空洞是急性脊髓软化灶或中央出血发展而来的。空洞的扩展被认为是由于咳嗽、用力和打喷嚏导致静脉压力传递至脊髓，以及致密蛛网膜粘连在创伤侧束缚脊髓，从而阻碍了脊髓对极端运动的适应性。
