Spina bifida with hydrocephalus, unspecified region [741.00] / Syringomyelia and syringobulbia [336.0] / Disorders of meninges, not elsewhere classified [349.2], Reason for Study: ^Reason: Chiari malformation decompression, syrinx, pseudomeningocele, 3 month follow up postoperatively. Previously seen about 15 mm sized pseudomeningocele on prior to compressive suboccipital craniectomy site is not demonstrated on today's scan. Low signal intensity lesions on both T1 and T2 weighted image on the area of pseudomeningocele resection site implying postoperative scar tissue.There is normal cervical lordosis. The cervical spine alignment is anatomic. The vertebral body height is preserved. The bone marrow and end plates demonstrate a normal MR appearance. The signal of the visualized cord is normal. No evidence of spinal canal/neural foraminal narrowing or myelopathy. The intervertebral discs demonstrate normal T2 intensity and height with no evidence of disc herniation. The paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable.
Interval complete to resection status of previously seen suboccipital pseudomeningocele. Otherwise unremarkable.
