Abstract
- A case of sudden paraplegia as the first symptom of a ruptured internal carotid artery bifurcation aneurysm is reported. Sudden appearance of paraparesis or paraplegia is an exceptional event in patients with intracranial aneurysms. The various pathogenic mechanisms are briefly discussed. Insufficient blood perfusion of both paracentral areas was the cause of paraplegia in this case.
