icepik Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 A 40 yr old fit female, with no previous history of acute pathological conditions endured a penetrating wound resulting in total obliteration of right dorsal horn of spinal cord segment at T6 vertebrae and total obliteration of the left ventral horn, spinal cord segment level T6 vertebrae. 4 days was given to her for the spinal cord edema to subside, and an examination was taken. What neurological clinical manifestations do you think one would find? My answer: Left side would lose sensation at and below the level of T6 (ventral horn = sensory protopathic?) right side would have flaccid paralysis at T6 level, and spastic paralysis below T6 I know my answer is VERY basic. help is muchhhhhh appreciated!! -Much Love
