A spinal cord herniation caused partial Brown-Sequard syndrome in a woman 18 months after a fall. This rare condition, often linked to trauma, requires careful diagnosis and management.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Traumatology

Background:

  • Spinal cord herniation is a rare condition where the spinal cord protrudes through a defect in its protective covering.
  • Post-traumatic spinal cord herniation can occur following severe spinal injuries, leading to neurological deficits.

Observation:

  • A 28-year-old woman developed partial Brown-Sequard syndrome 18 months after a fall from a horse.
  • Imaging revealed a spinal cord herniation at the T6 level as the cause of her symptoms.

Findings:

  • A review of literature identified 11 cases of post-traumatic spinal cord herniation.
  • Six cases showed direct injury at the herniation site, while five had potential trauma links or were spontaneous.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos

  • This case highlights the delayed presentation of spinal cord herniation after trauma.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management of neurological deficits caused by spinal cord herniation.
