Abstract

Split cord malformation (Diastometamyelia) is a developmental embriologic fusion defect and characterized by two spinal cord formation. In classification, two type is present: Type 1 and 2. It has an important etiologic factor in consistence of scoliosis. In diagnosis, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography are very important radiologic examinations. In last years, due to frequently usage of magnetic resonance imaging; computed tomography is less preferred. But then depending on highly effective diagnosis accuracy of bone septum and vertebrate anomalies; computed tomography should not be neglected. The most important factor in planning of surgical treatment is to reveal the primary reason for scoliosis In conclusion, collaboration of neuro and orthopedic surgeon is so important in assessment of patient. For not to lead to paraplegia; surgical treatment of scoliosis should be performed after removal of etiologic factor for split cord malformation.

Özet

Split kord malformasyonu, diğer adıyla Diastometamyeli; gelişimsel embriyolojik bir orta hat anomalisidir ve 2 tane omurilik oluşumu ile karakterizedir. Sınıflandırmada Tip 1 ve 2 olmak üzere ikiye ayrılır. Skolyoz oluşumu etyolojisinde önemli bir etkendir. Tanıda; magnetik rezonans görüntüleme ile bilgisayarlı tomografi tetkiki önemlidir. Son yıllarda, magnetik rezonans görüntülemenin sık kullanılması nedeniyle; bilgisayarlı tomografi daha az tercih edilmektedir. Ancak yine de kemik septum ve vertebra anomalilerinin görüntülenmesindeki etkinliği için çekimi ihmal edilmemelidir. Olgularının cerrahi tedavisinin planlanma sürecinde en önemli etken; eğer varsa skolyoza neden olan esas etkenin ortaya çıkarılmasıdır. Sonuç olarak, split kord malformasyonlu hastayı değerlendirme sürecinde; nöroşirurjiyen ve ortopedist işbirliği çok önemlidir. Paraplejiye yol açmamak için skolyoza yönelik cerrahi girişimin; split kord malformasyonuna neden olan etyolojik faktör ortadan kaldırıldıktan sonra yapılması gerekmektedir.
