Does acute conservative treatment improve lower-limb dysmobility in patients with paraplegia/paraparesis due to acute type B aortic dissection?
Acute conservative treatment may be effective in reversing lower-limb dysmobility in patients with spinal cord ischemia complicating acute type B aortic dissection.

May support conservative management of paraplegia in acute type B aortic dissection; leaves open need for prospective validation.
Fujisawa et al. (2006) conducted a case report in Paraplegia/paraparesis due to acute type B aortic dissection (n=2). Acute conservative treatment was evaluated on Reversal of lower-limb dysmobility. Acute conservative treatment achieved early reversal of lower-limb dysmobility in two cases of paraplegia/paraparesis due to acute type B aortic dissection.
