Zusammenfassung
Bisher wurden 41 Fälle intraduraler zervikaler Bandscheibenvorfälle beschrieben, keiner in Höhe C7/TH1. Unsere Patientin entwickelte nach Sturz eine Myelopathie mit Gangataxie. Zudem bestanden eine einseitige Zervikobrachialgie und Hypästhesie im Dermatom C8. In der Kernspintomografie fand sich eine intradurale Raumforderung C7/TH1 mit Tumorverdacht. Nach dorsolateralem Zugang fand sich ein intraduraler Bandscheibensequester. Sechs Monate nach Operation ist die Patientin beschwerdefrei.
Abstract
41 cases of cervical intradural disc herniation have been reported in the literature, none at the C7-T1 level. We describe a case of myelopathy after a fall. The female patient suffered an ataxia of the legs in combination with unilateral C8 cervicocephalgia and hypaesthesia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a space-occupying lesion at C7-T1, so we suspected a tumour. After a dorsolateral approach, an intradural disc herniation was found. Six months after the operation, the patient is free of complaints.
