Abstract

The authors report two cases of diastematomyelia in adults. One patient had a congenital kyphoscoliosis; the other had undergone surgery at birth for a myelomeningocele. The occurrence of diastematomyelia in patients with congenital scoliosis and myelomeningocele is discussed. Diastematomyelia is regarded as one of the causes of late deterioration of neurological function in such cases.

摘要

作者报告了两例成人脊髓纵裂病例。一名患者患有先天性脊柱后凸侧弯；另一名患者在出生时因脊髓脊膜膨出接受了手术。文中讨论了先天性脊柱侧弯和脊髓脊膜膨出患者中脊髓纵裂的发生情况。脊髓纵裂被认为是此类病例中神经功能晚期恶化的原因之一。
