“…The results were consistent with the hypothesis of Najjar et al [19] and strongly hint that SCH was caused by the inflammation. Although further verification on the proposed mechanism by histological diagnosis study is not available in the present case, the history and clinical symptom of the current case were similar as the one reported by Baur et al [5].…”

“…It was well accepted that the presence of a dural defect is considered to be a necessary condition of SCH [17,18]. Najjar et al [19] proposed that an inflammation might lead to arachnoid adhesion formation and erosion through the dura forming an idiopathic dural defect and subsequent spinal cord herniation. The inflammation resulting from incarceration of the cord [20] may also cause the increased thickness of dorsal arachnoid [17,21,22].…”

“…This did not reveal a statistically significant association between WDD and postoperative improvement in motor function (Fisher's exact test; P ϭ 0.173). However, when DS was removed from the analysis and only the treatment outcome of ADP was compared with that of WDD, the operative result was statistically significant and had a clinically relevant difference across the used operative technique (Fisher's exact test, P ϭ 0.036; Cohen's w ϭ 0.19) ( (56). Because the cause remains unknown, the rationale for a distinction between idiopathic or traumatic is missing.…”

“…Fifteen patients were operated on twice because of a misdiagnosis (6,9,11,20,36,37,47,56,73,86,87). At the initial operation, a PAC was detected and was thought to be responsible for the neurological symptoms in 11 cases.…”
