- Abstract
- "We experienced two cases of cord infarction. One patient developed quadriparesis and impaired pain and temperature
sensation, whose T2-weighted MRI revealed a high-intensity lesion from medulla to C5. Angiography showed severe
stenosis of both vertebral arteries. Another patient developed paraplegia and loss of all sensory modalities after cardiac
arrest, whose T2-weighted MRI revealed a high-intensity lesion in the cord at T11-L1. We conclude that each cause of
the infarctions was stenosis of the vertebral arteries and systemic hypoperfusion.Key Words : Spinal cord infarction, Vertebral artery stenosis, Hypoperfusion"
