Abstract:
A new mechanism of myelopathic changes in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis is described. Two similar cases had myelographic evidence of marked concentric impingement of the cervical subarachnoid space and cord compression due to thickening of the dura. Myelography is indicated in the evaluation of these patients because surgical decompression may reverse the progressive neurological deficits.
