[Hemiplegia following injection of heroin].
Two young drug abusers with nontraumatic hemiplegia have been observed. Onset of symptoms occurred within minutes after intravenous administration of heroin. One case had cerebral infarction and the other cerebral hemorrhage. Hypersensitivity to heroin or an unknown adulterant may play a role.
