Meningomyelolysis [Meningomyelolysis; Meningo- + Greek. Myelos (Spinal) Brain + Lysis Unbinding, Release]

Meningomyelolysis: Release of scar adhesions between the meninges and the spinal cord

Meningomyelolysis is a surgical procedure aimed at breaking the scar tissue that occurs between the meninges and the spinal cord. The term "meningomyelolysis" is formed by combining the Latin word "meningo" (meninges) and the Greek word "myelos" (spinal cord), as well as the suffix "lysis" (unbinding, release).

Cicatricial adhesions between the meninges (meninges) and the spinal cord can occur as a result of various pathological processes, such as trauma, infection, inflammation or surgery. These adhesions can restrict the movement of the spinal cord, which can cause a variety of neurological symptoms, including sensory loss, paralysis, and organ dysfunction.

During meningomyelolysis surgery, the surgeon cuts through the scar tissue, allowing the spinal cord to move and function freely. To achieve this goal, various techniques can be used, including microsurgical techniques and the use of special instruments.

Meningomyelolysis is a complex and highly skilled procedure performed by experienced neurosurgeons. Preliminary diagnosis and planning play an important role in determining the need and implementation of this operation. After meningomyelolysis, a rehabilitation period may be required to restore function and maximize the patient's quality of life.

Although meningomyelolysis is an effective treatment for scar adhesions between the meninges and the spinal cord, like any surgical procedure, it is associated with certain risks and complications. Patients undergoing this operation should be previously informed about the possible consequences and benefits of the procedure, as well as have a detailed consultation with the surgeon.

In conclusion, meningomyelolysis is a surgical procedure that frees the spinal cord from scar adhesions that have arisen between the meninges and the spinal cord. It may be recommended in cases where these adhesions limit the normal functioning of the spinal cord and cause neurological symptoms. However, the decision to undergo surgery should always be based on an individual assessment of the patient and consultation with experienced specialists.



Meningomyolysis : Surgery

**Meningomyellosis** is a surgical procedure in which the fusion between the membranes of the brain and the spinal cord is cut. This term is often used outside medical circles to mean a fracture of the spine or skull bones. However, such concepts are not identical, since the cause of these conditions can be various factors.

This procedure is called meningodissection and is used in cases where drug treatment has not given the desired results or is not possible at all. Meningomia is also used in the presence of intense pain that is associated with spasm of muscles and surrounding tissues.

In addition, the cause of the dissection may also be the presence of abnormal pressure inside the skull; development
