Two cases are reported of patients with spinal dysraphism who developed abscesses within the spinal cord. In one case the infection had spread to the cord through a dermal sinus, as in the six cases previously recorded in the literature. In the other patient the sepsis developed within an intramedullary epidermoid tumour, but the route of infection was not clear. Each patient made a virtually full neurological recovery after open drainage of the abscess.
报告了两例脊髓发育异常患者脊髓内形成脓肿的病例。其中一例感染通过皮肤窦道扩散至脊髓,文献中先前已记录过6例这种情况。另一例患者的败血症发生于髓内表皮样肿瘤内,但感染途径不明。两例患者在脓肿切开引流后神经功能几乎完全恢复。
