West Nile Virus: a case report with flaccid paralysis and cervical spinal cord: MR imaging findings.

Greg Kraushaar1, Rajesh Patel, Grant W Stoneham.   

Abstract

We present a case of serologically proved West Nile virus (WNV) flaccid paralysis of the right upper extremity. Radiologic correlation revealed striking T2 hyperintensities in the anterior horns of the cervical spinal cord, similar to those seen in cases of poliomyelitis. Recognition of the MR imaging findings in cases of WNV flaccid paralysis can provide early evidence of infection.
