A 66-year-old woman presented a spastic quadriparesis due to compression of the cervical cord 6 years after the beginning of chronic hemodialysis. Five years later, she developed a second episode of compressive myelopathy affecting the lumbar spine. On both occasions, surgical laminectomy with removal of fibroligamentous rings that compressed the cord led to a total recovery of the patient. Histological study demonstrated the presence of massive amyloid deposits in the surgically excised material.
一名66岁女性在慢性血液透析开始6年后因颈髓受压出现痉挛性四肢瘫。5年后,她又出现了一次影响腰椎的压迫性脊髓病发作。两次发病时,通过手术切除压迫脊髓的纤维韧带环进行椎板切除术,患者均完全康复。组织学研究显示,手术切除的组织中有大量淀粉样沉积物。
