BACKGROUND: Acute @entity1158 is a rare presentation for spinal @entity64 , which usually presents with @entity451 or @entity1746 . @entity1 DESCRIPTION: We describe an athletic @entity1 who presented after a week of heavy @entity615 , followed by flaccid left @entity912 . RESULTS: The prothrombotic evaluation was unremarkable. Cerebrospinal fluid studies demonstrated elevated @entity2610 but no oligoclonal bands. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a lesion in the anterior cord from T9 to T11 with T2 hyperintensity, contrast enhancement, and diffusion restriction, suggesting @entity1188 . There was a herniated disc at T10-T11 contacting the spinal cord and @entity22336 at T11 and T12. Magnetic resonance angiography of the spinal cord was limited by movement artifact. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of our @entity1 's clinical presentation, imaging studies, and laboratory evaluation suggests that our @entity1 had a @entity1188 . A @entity35281 was the likely mechanism of @entity1188 due to the presence of @entity22336 and disc herniation on imaging. In addition to spinal @entity64 , other possible mechanisms leading to presentation with @entity1158 , such as transverse @entity4685 , @entity1652 , and @entity15 , are discussed.
