A case of Noonan's syndrome with cervical syringomyelia is presented here representing the second reported instance of such association. A CT of metrizamide myelography revealed a high density in the middle subintradural space in the cervical region below C 2 . Sensory dissociation was minimal and localized in the left C 4 . It could not be determined whether this association between syringomyelia and Noonan's syndrome is related or represents a chance.
