[Post-radiotherapy anterior horn cell syndrome]
Abstract
Three patients developed a progressive flaccid paraparesis without sensory or sphincter disturbances, following radiotherapy for lymphoma in two cases and carcinoma of testis in one case. The course was progressive with stabilization between two and four years. Electrophysiological study suggested anterior horn cell damage the mechanism of which remains unclear.
