Paraplegia after coeliac plexus block.

M J Woodham1, M H Hanna.   

Abstract

A case is described in which paraplegia followed a coeliac plexus block performed using 90% alcohol under X ray screening. The likely cause was an ischaemic injury to the cord secondary to damage to the artery of Adamkiewicz. This rare complication seems difficult to avoid.
