| 概要 | Destructive spondyloarthropathy (DSA) has been reported in patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis. Cervical spinal lesions, including those of the upper cervical spine, are reported to be some of the most common. To our knowledge, we report for the first time, a case of atlanto-occipital subluxation requiring surgical treatment due to severe myelopathy and nuchal pain in a patient undergoing long-term hemodialysis. The patient was a 66-year-old woman who had undergone hemodialysis for 40 years. She visited our hospital due to an acute progression of gait disturbance and severe nuchal pain. Computed tomography showed posterior subluxation of the atlanto-occipital joints. DSA was also observed in the lower cervical spine. Magnetic resonance imaging showed spinal canal stenosis at both the upper and lower cervical levels. We performed Oc-C7 fixation, C1 laminectomy, and C3-C7 laminoplasty. We first recognized that the atlanto-occipital subluxation was caused by the extremely long-term, in this case, 40 years, hemodialysis. |
