A child with near complete spontaneous resolution of a cervicothoracic syrinx and improvement in a Chiari type I malformation without surgical intervention is presented. The child was followed clinically with serial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and has remained neurologically stable over an 11-year period. To our knowledge, only 3 pediatric cases of spontaneous resolution of a spinal cord syrinx as documented by MR imaging without surgical intervention have been reported. This case contributes to the literature on the natural history of syringes.
本文报告了一名儿童，其颈胸段脊髓空洞症几乎完全自发消退，且I型Chiari畸形有所改善，未进行手术干预。对该儿童进行了临床随访，并定期进行磁共振（MR）成像检查，在11年的时间里其神经功能一直保持稳定。据我们所知，此前仅报道过3例经MR成像记录证实的脊髓空洞症自发消退的儿科病例，且未进行手术干预。该病例丰富了有关脊髓空洞症自然病程的文献资料。
