Abstract
Post-traumatic syringomyelia develops years to decades after spinal trauma in up to 28% of patients. We report a case of a man who developed extensive syringomyelia 14 years after spinal trauma, but had only minimal symptoms. Presumed pathophysiology of this condition and options for surgical management are briefly reviewed.
