SUMMARY

1. Enlargement of the cord from syringomyelia and can be associated with a Chiari 1 malformation.

2. If a syrinx involves the entire cervical region with no Chiari malformation to explain it, the rest of the cord should be imaged for possible tethering or other lesions.

3. Cord tumours located more caudally can also be associated with a holo-cord syrinx.
