Two cases of segmental myoclonus occurring in association with spinal dysraphism are described. In one, myoclonus of paralysed legs arose below a region of spinal cord lacking any normal function, illustrating the capacity of the isolated spinal cord to generate and maintain rhythmic activity independent of supraspinal influences.
本文描述了两例与脊髓发育异常相关的节段性肌阵挛病例。其中一例，瘫痪腿部的肌阵挛出现在脊髓完全丧失正常功能的节段以下，这表明孤立的脊髓具有独立于脊髓以上神经影响而产生和维持节律性活动的能力。
