A 53-year-old patient with multiple cartilagineous exostoses developed narrowing of the thoracic spinal canal with compression of the cord and spastic paraplegia. The importance of radiologic examination of the whole spine as well as of the extremities is emphasized. When there is an exostosis in the spine neurologic examination disclosing cord compression should be carried out at regular intervals. If there are signs of cord compression, early decompressive laminectomy is the treatment of choice.
一名患有多发性软骨外生骨疣的53岁患者出现胸段椎管狭窄,伴有脊髓受压和痉挛性截瘫。强调了对整个脊柱以及四肢进行放射学检查的重要性。当脊柱存在外生骨疣时,应定期进行神经系统检查以发现脊髓受压情况。如果出现脊髓受压迹象,早期减压性椎板切除术是首选治疗方法。
