Abstract:
We are reporting a temporary, totally reversed motor and sensory paralysis subsequent to the intrathecal administration of 1.6 mg of morphine sulfate. This may represent an event which is not based on medication-induced myelopathy but on cardiovascular changes occurring as a result of pain relief.
