Zusammenfassung:	The course of a pregnancy in a woman with syringomyelia is presented. She was first admitted at 28 weeks’ gestation suffering neurologic symptoms associated with a spinal cord injury, which had happened in the past. The disease was diagnosed with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
