| Strumpell's disease | Arthritis and osteitis deformans involving the spinal column; marked by nodular deposits at the edges of the intervertebral disks with ossification of the ligaments and bony ankylosis of the intervertebral articulations, it results in a rounded kyphosis with rigidity. Synonym: Bechterew's disease, poker back, Strumpell's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Strumpell's phenomenon | Dorsal flexion of the great toe, sometimes of the entire foot, in a paralysed limb when the extremity is drawn up against the body, flexing both knee and hip. Synonym: tibial phenomenon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Strumpell's reflex | Stroking the abdomen or thigh causes flexion of the leg and adduction of the foot. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Strumpell-Marie disease | <rheumatology> A polyarthritis involving the spine, which is characterised by progressive, painful stiffening of the joints and ligaments. It almost exclusively affects young men. Interestingly the disease seems to be associated with HLA B27, those with this histocompatability antigen are 300 times more likely to get the disease, 90% of sufferers have HLA B27 (18 Nov 1997) |
| Strumpell-Westphal disease | <gastroenterology, neurology> An inherited (autosomal recessive) disorder where there is excessive quantities of copper in the tissues, particularly the liver and central nervous system. Wilson's disease causes the body to absorb and retain copper. The copper deposits in the liver, brain, kidneys and eyes. Complications include dementia and liver failure. Symptoms include jaundice, vomiting, tremors, weakness and slow stiff movements. Blood tests show serum ceruloplasmin is low. Medications are given to remove the excess copper from the body. Even with life-long treatment, disabling (and life-threatening) side effects are common. Inheritance: autosomal recessive. (27 Sep 1997) |

| Fleischer-Strumpell ring | A greenish yellow pigmented ring encircling the cornea just within the corneoscleral margin, seen in hepatolenticular degeneration, due to copper deposited in Descemet's membrane. Synonym: Fleischer-Strumpell ring. (05 Mar 2000) |
