Segmental amyotrophy is a common feature resulting from extension of the syrinx into the anterior horns. Segmental hypertrophy in the form of chiromegaly/podomegaly or limb and hemi-hypertrophy are rare but well recognized clinical feature of syringomyelia. We report a case of hand hypertrophy secondary to syringomyelia. Hypertrophy of the hands is a rare but interesting feature of syringomyelia and in all cases of enlargements of hands syringomyelia should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
