Surgical treatment of syringomyelia based on magnetic resonance imaging criteria.
Thomas H. Milhorat,Walter D. Johnson,John I. Miller,Richard M. Bergland,Joanna R. Hollenberg-Sher +4 more
TL;DR: A retrospective study of 65 patients with cavitary lesions of the spinal cord in whom the results of magnetic resonance imaging were used to develop specific treatment strategies for syringomyelia reports a retrospective study.

Anatomical basis of syringomyelia occurring with hindbrain lesions
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that syrinxes occurring with hindbrain lesions are not caused by a caudal flow of cerebrospinal fluid from the fourth ventricle into the central canal of the spinal cord.

Syrinx shunt to posterior fossa cisterns (syringocisternostomy) for bypassing obstructions of upper cervical theca
TL;DR: A technique was developed for shunting the syrinx to the posterior fossa cisterns, termed "syringocisternostomy", and syrinxes were shunted to the cisterna magna in two patients with spinal arachnoiditis and to the cerebellopontine angle cistern in four patients with Chiari I malformations.

Continuous postoperative lCBF monitoring in aneurysmal SAH patients using a combined ICP-laser Doppler fiberoptic probe.
Walter D. Johnson,Paolo A. Bolognese,John I. Miller,Ian M. Heger,Mark A. Liker,Thomas H. Milhorat +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the presence of angiographic vasospasm and increased velocities on TCD do not always correlate with ischemia in the microcirculation and that direct measurements of lCBF are often at variance with calculations of cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP).

Evidence of CSF Flow in Rostral Direction Through Central Canal of Spinal Cord in Rats
Thomas H. Milhorat,Richard W. Johnson,Walter D. Johnson +2 more
- 01 Jan 1991
TL;DR: Findings are consistent with an intraluminal flow of fluid that moves in a rostral direction through the central canal of the spinal cord in rats.
