Abstract

Syringomyelia is a rare disorder that causes a cyst to form in spinal cord. This cyst, called a syrinx, can damage to the spinal cord and cause symptoms such as motor weakness, pain, sensory disturbance, etc. We experienced a case of tactile hypesthesia suspecting syringomyelia in 16 year old male patient. Syringomyelia in T2/3 level was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. Hypesthesia was similar to mamokbulin in oriental medicine. And we assumed these symptoms induced by conditions called kiheo in analyzing patient's symptoms and signs. We treated the patient by acupuncture, herbal medicine improving kiheo, and other methods. In the result, the symptoms had withdrawn. This case suggested possibility to treat syringomyelia in oriental medicine, but single case is insufficient for evidence.
