Abstract
Compared to cerebral ischemia, spinal cord ischemia remains rare, and results in various types of neurological deficiencies such as abrupt and complete paraplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable tool to rule out other causes of acute spinal cord syndromes and to show the infarct. Most spinal cord infarcts are due to aortic diseases (atherosclerosis, aneurysm, dissection), or are of iatrogenic origin (surgery of the aorta and aortography). Spinal hemorrhagic strokes are usually the consequence of arterio-venous malformations or coagulation disorders. These malformations require interventional radiology.
