Syringomyelia / Syringobulbia

Syringomyelia is a disorder in which a cyst or cavity forms within the spinal cord. The cyst can increase over time destroying the centre of the spinal cord. If not treated surgically, Syringomyelia can lead to progressive weakness, pain and loss of sensation in the arms and legs.

Syringobulbia is the same as syringomyelia where the cyst or abnormal cavity exists within the brainstem.
