Park and Sohn: Atypical Abdominal Pain

Abstract

Abdominal pain usually originates from the abdomen, but the lack of evidence of any abdominal disease suggests the pain originate from the thorax or have metabolic and neurogenic causes. Especially, neurogenic abdominal pain is recurrent and sustained causalgic pain, regardless of diet and without abdominal distension or rigidity, may be accompanied by signs of neurologic dysfunction. We have experienced a very rare case of abdominal pain arising from the intramedullary cavernous hemangioma of spinal cord. We report this case with a review of the literature.
