Preserved Fulltext
Objectives: To discuss the management of late paraplegia following thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. Design: Retrospective description of patients. Materials: Two case reports. Results: Recovery from late paraplegia was obtained by removal of cerebrospinal fluid. Conclusions: The immediate recovery from symptoms following CSF drainage strongly supports the effect of this measure in the treatment of late paraplegia following thoracic/thoracoabdominal surgery.
