Do lumbar puncture operation can cause spinal cavity disease?
May 29, 2022
These are two different concepts. Lumbar puncture is only used to extract a certain amount of cerebrospinal fluid from the subarachnoid space after entering the subarachnoid space through the puncture needle through the superior spinal ligament and intervertebral disc space for relevant examination. In adults, this operation avoids the presence of the spinal cord and will not cause any damage to the spinal cord. Syringomyelia is a chronic, progressive disease of the spinal cord. The etiology is unclear, but it is characterized by the formation of tubular cavities in the spinal cord (mostly gray matter) and proliferation of glial (non-nerve) cells. Often occurs in the spinal cord of the neck. When the disease involves the medulla oblongata, it is called holomedullary disease. What you misunderstand is that puncture needles may cause mechanical damage to the spinal cord during lumbar puncture surgery, but that they are just another spinal cord disease of unknown etiology. So the conclusion is that lumbar puncture does not cause syringomyelia.
