Abstract

We studied a poorly known form of CSF hypotension characterized by cervical myelopathy, a considerable growth in volume of the venous plexus of the cervical spine and absence of headache. This form was first described by Miyazaki. We reported a case brought to our attention, we reviewed the literature and formulated etiopathogenic theories that might explain all the various clinical aspects of this pathology
