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.
