Recurrent vascular myelopathy. Report of a case with autopsy.
A case of ischemic myelopathy which was marked by two clinical episodes, separated by a 4-month interval and affecting the same level of the spinal cord, is reported. A wide-ranging search through the literature shows that the recurrent type of ischemic vascular myelopathy is very rare.
