Abstract
Syringomyelia affects people predominantly between the ages of 20 and 50. Deep trophic disorders of bones, joints, muscles and skin often lead patients with syringomyelia to a surgeon, while the primary lesion is the spinal cord. The most common surgical complications of syringomyelia are burns associated with loss or decrease in temperature sensitivity, kyphoscoliotic deformities of the spine in the cervical and thoracic regions with the formation of a rib hump, arthropathic deformities of the joints with arbitrary dislocations, massive effusions, peculiar deformities of the hand with an increase in its size (cheiromegaly), edema of soft tissues, long-term non-healing painless panaritiums, sometimes the loss of whole phalanges (mutations).
