Core Tip |
“Cervicogenic” headache, vertigo, dizziness, hypertension, or tinnitus had been reported that patients with cervical spondylosis caused by sympathetic symptoms including headache, vertigo, dizziness, hypertension, or tinnitus and treated successfully with operation of anterior cervical discectomy and fixation using PEEK cages and a plate. Here we described a patient with spondylosis of C4/5/6 with unilateral exophthalmos. She suffered from unexpected spontaneous improvement of unilateral exophthalmos after an operation of anterior cervical discectomy and fixation with two PEEK interbody cages and a plate. Therefore, we have named the condition “cervicogenic exophthalmos”. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first related case report and use of the term “cervicogenic exophthalmos” after reviewing previous literature. |
