ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: La hernia medular idiopática es una patología infrecuente que cursa clínicamente con una mielopatía progresiva, la mayoría de las ocasiones en forma de síndrome de Brown-Séquard. Su base anatómica es un defecto dural por el que se incarcera progresivamente una porción del cordón medular anterior. La resonancia magnética y la mielotomografía demuestran un acodamiento medular en «tienda de campaña» hacia la cara anterior del estuche dural, a nivel dorsal medio fundamentalmente. Caso clínico. Varón de 37 años, diagnosticado de hernia medular idiopática e intervenido quirúrgicamente mediante una técnica propia; se demuestra su correlación neurorradiológica, anatomoquirúrgica y evolutiva. CONCLUSIÓN: El tratamiento debe ser individualizado, pues no existe una técnica quirúrgica universalmente establecida


INTRODUCTION: Idiopathic medullary herniation is an infrequent disease, which shows up in clinical form as a progressive mielopathy, most commonly known as the Brown-Séquard syndrome. Its anatomical base is a dural defect where a portion of anterior spinal cord gets progressively incarcerated. The MRI and myelo-CT scan show a bending of the spinal cord in the form of a «bell tent» towards the anterior dural sheath at the mid-dorsal portion mainly. CASE REPORT: A 37 year old male, who was diagnosed of idiopathic medullary herniation and surgically treated by our own developed technique, reporting its neuroradiological, anatomo-surgical and clinical correlation. CONCLUSION. Treatment should be individualized, as no standard surgical technique has been established up to the present
