The "presyrinx" state: a reversible myelopathic condition that may precede syringomyelia.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 1999; (1): 7-20
Alteration of CSF flow has been proposed to be an important mechanism leading to the development of syringomyelia. We hypothesize that a "presyrinx" condition attributable to a potentially reversible alteration in normal CSF flow exists and that its appearance may be caused by variations in the competence of the central canal of the spinal cord.
