The syndrome of the anterior spinal artery is a rare disease with a diagnosis based an its characteristic clinical features. Until the widespread use of the Magnetic Resonance (MR) the lesional confirmation required an anatomopathological study. We report a 49-years-old male with lacinating interscapular pain and sudden asymmetrical tetraparesia, in whom MR scan disclosed a plurisegmental anterior spinal lesion and a posterolateral disk protrusion at C6-C7 level. We discuss the etiological and pathogenetical relation between degenerative vertebral disk disease and spinal infarctions.
脊髓前动脉综合征是一种罕见疾病，其诊断基于特征性临床特征。在磁共振成像（MR）广泛应用之前，病变确诊需要进行解剖病理学研究。我们报告一名49岁男性，有撕裂样肩胛间疼痛和突发不对称性四肢轻瘫，其磁共振扫描显示多节段脊髓前部病变以及C6-C7水平的后外侧椎间盘突出。我们讨论了退行性椎间盘疾病与脊髓梗死之间的病因及发病机制关系。
