Presentation transcript:

A, Fluid-filled intraspinal collection anterior to the cord on an axial cut of a thoracic spine CT myelogram. A, Fluid-filled intraspinal collection anterior to the cord on an axial cut of a thoracic spine CT myelogram. A transdural leak between C7 and T6 was present. A dynamic CT myelogram can localize the exact site of the defect and help direct the laminectomy site. B, Axial CT scan with bone windows from a patient with SS shows a bilaminar C7 fracture (same as patient shown in 4C1 and C2). C, Axial cervical spine CT myelogram shows avulsed C2 nerve roots, which are directed in an anteroposterior direction and are seen as linear streaks with surrounding contrast (same patient as the one shown in Fig 8C). D, Dynamic CT myelogram from a patient with SS and a cervicothoracic epidural fluid-filled collection shows leakage of contrast through a dural tear at T1–2.29 E1, Dynamic CT myelogram shows leakage of contrast (arrow); the dotted arrow points to the intrathecal contrast. E2, Dynamic CT myelogram shows calcified disk protrusion immediately caudal to the dural defect shown in E; the dotted arrow points to intrathecal contrast. This patient (E1 and E2) had diffuse pachymeningeal enhancement, a cervicothoracic epidural fluid collection, and CSF RBCs and xanthochromia, all of which resolved after repair of a dural defect identified at T7–8. F1, Reformatted sagittal cuts from a dynamic CT myelogram obtained in a patient with low-pressure headache without SS show a high-flow CSF leak (arrow) through a ventral midline defect located on the right side of a bilobed spiculated midline osteophyte at T2–3. F2, The osteophyte is shown on an axial thoracic spine CT. This patient also had a ventral epidural fluid-filled collection into which the contrast leaked through the dural defect (dotted arrow).
