Abstract
|
|
|
Neuropathic arthropathy is a chronic and progressive disease of bone and joints. One of the most common causes of neuropathic arthropathy is syringomyelia. Syringomyelia associated with Arnold-Chiari I malformation has been well documented in many reports. We report a case of 76 year-old woman presented with the right elbow joint pain and stiffness. Her symptom was caused by neuropathic arthropathy associated with Arnold-Chiari I malformation and syringomyelia. The purpose of this paper is to emphasize that neuropathic arthropathy requires the evaluation of central nervous system to assess for occult causal lesion.
