| الوصف: | High-voltage electrocution-induced neurological complications are often associated with dire consequences. The low-resistance neural pathway provides an easy gateway for the current propagation and subsequent injuries. We present a case of electrocution-induced high-cervical myelopathy resulting in quadriparesis with sensorimotor and autonomic involvement with a slow recovery course along with the subsequent imaging and electrophysiological finding suggestive of long-term degeneration of the central corticospinal tracts. On review of prior works of literature, few similar cases are seen with varied postulations of the pathophysiology of the injury. More frequent reporting of such cases, which often go undetected, should be done to increase awareness. |
