Description

Gunjan Ingale, Ruchika Zade, and Rebecca Timothy describe therapy for a young woman with a spinal cord cavity in a 2023 case report. The rare disorder forms a fluid pocket inside the cord that grows and causes damage. Their patient could not walk or swallow and had weakness and speech trouble.

Imaging showed fused neck bones and a brain tissue slip tied to the full-length cavity. After medical and surgical care, a twelve-week therapy program began. Sessions targeted strength, joint range, coordination, and daily living tasks. Pain eased as function improved over the program. The case shows how structured rehabilitation can restore independence after complex spine surgery. It offers a template for similar rare presentations.
