Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Periodontoid synovial cysts are rare lesions which may produce symptomatic cervico-medullary compression.
METHOD: We report such a patient, whose progressive neurological deterioration required surgical treatment by transoral odontoidectomy and decompression.
RESULTS: The diagnostic and theraputic interventions are described, including a lumbar puncture which precipitated a transient loss of consciousness and respiratory arrest. Surgery achieved clinical improvement, without complications or need for operative stablization. Detailed neuropathology is presented, as well as a literature review.
CONCLUSION: Appropriate neuroradiological assessment is required in patients with suspected cervico-medullary compression, and symptomatic periodontoid synovial cysts may respond well to transoral surgical decompression.
