Brief Description

Syringomyelia (Sear-IN-Joe-My-E-Lee-Uh), or “SM”, is a chronic disorder of the spinal cord which consists of the formation of a syrinx (a pocket of cerebral-spinal fluid sometimes referred to as a cyst, hydromyelia, or syringohydromyelia) inside the spinal cord cavity. The syrinx may expand and elongate as it encroaches on the spinal cord and can easily cause deterioration of the nerves.
