There is a further type of classification which is Internal Organisation I.e. dense (compact/cortical) and spongy (cancellous/trabecular). I think you have failed to include this?

Dear Halima,

You need to find out that from your local sources if the supply can be made. The literature says not to use the same syringe again.

I am a 53 yr old woman born with this condition in both arms. Iwas bullied mercilessly all through secondary school and have struggled all my life to do simple things that people with “normal” hands find easy. I have recently started to get a lot of pain in my arms and have trouble gripping things..went to my doctor and he knew nothing about this condition so is sending me for x rays. I decided to do some research on the net and was so happy to find this site. I have always felt so alone and was the only one like this. I would love to hear from others who have had the same experiences. Not a lot seems to be known about it here in the uk..IT also had heart valve replacement last year and was surprised to read that it could be connected in some way.Thankyou all for posting here..for the first time in my life I don’t feel so alone

syrinx means their is dilation of the cord at the level.There is abnormal signal in rest of dorsal spine and shows involvement of dorsal aspect of the cord [if you divide the cord in two halves font and back, the back portion becomes dorsal aspect].

Your cord is showing abnormal changes in dorsal aspect. Sensory input to the brain is also through dorsal portion. You can discuss with your clinician about possible relevance of the findings in your case and the described problem.
