Paraplegia as a sequela to dorsal disc prolapse.

A F Terry, T McSweeney, H W Jones.   

Abstract

A retrospective study of seven patients referred to a spinal injury unit following surgery for thoracic disc prolapse is presented. Early diagnosis and increased awareness of the condition followed by lateral rhachotomy or anterolateral decompression is essential if the former dismal prognosis is to be improved.
