Anterior spinal cord syndrome

Anterior spinal artery syndrome (anterior spinal arteria syndrome) is also known as Beck syndrome, Davison syndrome, and anterior spinal artery occlusion syndrome.

Its clinical feature is that the anterior spinal artery distribution area is affected, causing paralysis, pain, Temperature sensory disorder, rectal bladder sphincter disorder.
