Abstract:
Delayed post-hypoxic leucoencephalopathy is a demyelinating syndrome characterized by acute onset of neuropsychiatric symptoms including parkinsonism or akinetic mutism that occurs days to weeks after recovery from cerebral hypo-oxygenation. We encountered a patient who presented with an akinetic mute state late after cervical cord injury without a definite hypoxic event.
