[Chronic ischemia of the anterior horn of the lumbar swelling of the spinal cord. Angiographic study in a subject with herniation of the T12-L1 discs].
On the basis of a case of almost pure involvement of the anterior horn with chronic progression in an individual with a low thoracic herniated disc (T12-L1), the hypothesis is discussed of the role of ischaemia of the lumbar swelling. Angiographic arguments (displacement of the anterior spinal axis and unusual distribution of anterior spinal afferents) perhaps make it reasonable to speak of "chronic ischaemic poliomyelitis" in the absence of pathological examination.
