SYRINGOMYELIA Inheritance of Syringomyelia in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Clare Rusbridge BVMS DipECVN MRCVS Susan P. Knowler BSc (Hons) Stone Lion Veterinary Centre, 41 High Street, Wimbledon, London UK SW19 5AU Email: neuro.vet@btinternet. com Tel: 00 44 (0) 208 946 4228 Fax: 00 44 (0) 208 7860525 Recently a family tree of over 4,200 related dogs was constructed from the pedigrees of 100 dogs with syringomyelia. For comparison a family tree from 40 CKCS with primary epilepsy and no clinical signs of syringomyelia was also constructed. The epilepsy pedigrees had been amassed by a dedicated member of the UK CKCS Club over a period of 15 years. Study of the two family trees resulted in the following conclusions. There is a tendency for more severe disease and earlier onset with increased line breeding. For example, a three month old CKCS that was euthanatised because of hydrocephalous had 32/32 great-great-great-grandparents descended from the significant lines, which included champions known to have a tendency for shoulder scratching whilst walking. There appears to be 3 forms of the disease based on severity and age of onset 1) Puppies with hydrocephalous 2) juvenile form (presenting at 6-15 months) with scoliosis (twisted neck) and weakness 3) adult form (1-10years) initially presenting with shoulder scratching and pain secondary to syringomyelia. Another trend is that the sire and dam might develop disease after the offspring i.e. the offspring had a more severe disease which developed first, then signs would become apparent in the sire or dam (or both).

The cavity, for unknown reasons, often expands during adolescence or the young adult years. The syrinx is situated near the middle of the spine. It may extend across the spinal cord or along almost all of its length. Symptoms Individuals with Syringomyelia in the upper (cervical and thoracic) part of the spinal cord may first notice loss of feeling for pain and temperature in their fingers, hands, arms, and upper chest. In the early stages, a sense of touch is still present. A loss of feeling may spread over the shoulders and back in a "cape-like" pattern. Sinking in of an eyeball, a drooping upper eyelid, slight elevation of the lower lid, constriction of the pupil, narrowing of the opening between the eyelids, absence of sweating and flushing of the affected side of the face (Horner syndrome; Bernard-Horner syndrome; Horner's ptosis) may also occur.

The possible causes are trauma, tumors and congenital defects. It is most usually observed in the part of the spinal cord corresponding to the neck area. Symptoms are due to spinal cord damage and are: decreased sensation of touch, weakness and loss of muscle tissue. The diagnosis is confirmed with a spinal CT, myelogram or MRI of the spinal cord. The cavity may be reduced by surgical decompression. This article is from Wikipedia . All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License

This cyst, called a syrinx, expands and elongates over time, destroying the centre of the spinal cord. If not treated surgically, Syringomyelia often leads to progressive weakness in the limbs, loss of hand sensation and chronic, severe pain. Each patient experiences a different combination of symptoms.

Additional CM1/S Information What are Chiari Malformations and Syringomyelia? Syringomyelia is a condition characterized by a syrinx (fluid-filled cyst) in the spinal cord. In some instances, syringomyelia is caused by an injury. However, there are also some cases that are congenital (present at birth). Often, patients with CM1 are also diagnosed with syringomyelia. Genetics and CM1/S The Center for Human Genetics, in collaboration with Dr. Thomas Milhorat and colleagues of North Shore University Hospital/Manhasset NY and the American Syringomyelia Alliance Project , is investigating the hereditary basis of Chiari type I malformations with or without syringomyelia. Our research is aimed at learning if CM1/S is indeed caused by factors inherited through the family and, if so, which genes are involved. Although our current data show evidence for CM1/S "running" (or clustering) in some families, we cannot say how often this phenomenon occurs or even whether this is truly due to inherited factors called genes (

Resources for Families The Center for Human Genetics, in collaboration with Dr. Thomas Milhorat and colleagues at North Shore University Hospital/Manhasset NY, and the American Syringomyelia Alliance Project, is investigating the hereditary basis of Chiari type I malformations with or without syringomyelia. What are Chiari malformations? Chiari malformations occur in the region where the brain joins the spinal cord. The lower portions of the brain (cerebellar and/or brainstem) are located lower than normal, penetrating out of the skull or protruding into the spinal canal. This misplacement can cause many different symptoms. Chiari malformations are also known by the following medical terms: herniation of the cerebellar tonsils, cerebellar ectopia, hindbrain herniation, and Arnold-Chiari malformations.

Syringomyelia (SM) Treatment By Using Bone Marrow Enriching Series Medicine The General Syringomyelia is a rare condition in which long, fluid filled spaces are present in the central gray matter of the spinal cord. We call this space as syrin which expands and elongates over time, destroying the center of the spinal cord. Since the spinal cord connects the brain to nerves in the extremities, this damage results in pain, weakness, and stiffness in the back, shoulders, arms, or legs. One way to think of syringomyelia is if you were to take a hot dog and inject water into the center. This forms an abnormal cavity within the structure of the spinal cord, causes pressure and disrupts the normal function of the nerves that travel from that area of the cord. The Main Symptoms Many of the symptoms of syringomyelia may be vague at beginning. However, symptoms can be progressive over a long period of time. Some people experience symptoms that occur suddenly, causing them to think they may have had a stroke. Pain is one of the most common symptoms persons may experience. People may complain of pain in the arm, hand or leg. Some people report a burning type of pain around the ribs or in the neck or back. Often, the pain is present for months to years before a proper diagnosis is made. Pain on one side is more commonly reported than bilateral pain.
