PG - 102126 LID - 10.1016/j.jcot.2023.102126 [doi] LID - 102126 AB - Neglected traumatic cervical dislocation can be difficult to treat as such and more so if they are accompanied by an associated post traumatic syringomyelia (PTS). We present the case of a 55 year old gentleman who had a traumatic C6-C7 grade 2 listhesis which was neglected and presented 6 year later with 6 months history of neck pain, spastic quadriparesis and bowel bladder involvement. The patient was diagnosed with a PTS extending from C4 to D5. The possible aetiology and management of such cases has been discussed. The patient was successfully treated with decompression, adhesiolysis of arachnoid bands and syringotomy without the correction of deformity. The patient improved neurologically and had complete resolution of syrinx at final followup. CI - (c) 2023 Delhi Orthopedic Association. All rights reserved.
