Two patients with spinal arachnoiditis following subarachnoid haemorrhage are described. A complete spinal block was seen at the mid thoracic level with characteristics of spinal arachnoiditis. Only one patient had severe symptoms. Both patients were treated conservatively. Signs and symptoms diminished in time. A review of the literature is given and the aetiology is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
