Abstract
✓ The ninth case of posttraumatic syringomyelia with postmortem confirmation is presented. Onset of symptoms occurred 19 years after the original trauma. A review of the literature with a discussion of postulated mechanisms of syrinx distention follows. The present case differs from previously reported postmortem cases in that there was communication through the medullary parenchyma with the fourth ventricle.
