Post-traumatic syringomyelia is now a well known entity and occurs months or years after a spinal cord injury. The presenting symptoms are usually pain, progressive motor weakness, sensory changes, and increased spasticity. Profuse sweating or hyperhidrosis can be a symptom of the post-traumatic syrinx or can occur in autonomic dysreflexia provoked by peripheral stimuli. We present two patients with cervical spine fractures whose presenting symptom of post-traumatic syringomyelia was hyperhidrosis affected by posture. The pathophysiology involved and the management of these patients is discussed.
创伤后脊髓空洞症如今已是一种为人熟知的病症，它在脊髓损伤数月或数年之后出现。其呈现出的症状通常为疼痛、进行性运动无力、感觉改变以及痉挛加剧。大量出汗或多汗症可能是创伤后脊髓空洞症的一种症状，也可能发生在由外周刺激引发的自主神经反射异常中。我们报告了两名颈椎骨折患者，其创伤后脊髓空洞症的首要症状是受姿势影响的多汗症。文中讨论了所涉及的病理生理学以及对这些患者的治疗。
