摘要
Spinal cord stroke is uncommon. We report a woman presenting with paraesthesia followed by tetraparesis and respiratory failure who was initially diagnosed as having Guillain-Barre syndrome. Subsequent clinical and imaging features supported the diagnosis of an anterior spinal cord infarction. We describe the main clinical and imaging features of this condition.
