Abstract EN
Brown-Séquard's syndrome (BSS) is caused by hemisection or hemicompression of the cord leading to ipsilateral motor deficit and contralateral sensory loss.
Cervical disc herniation has been reported to be a rare cause of Brown-Séquard's syndrome.
We describe a rare case of multilevel cervical disc herniation presenting as BSS.
The condition was confirmed by MRI scan.
Cervical corpectomy, decompression, and fusion gave a satisfying result.
Pertinent literature has been reviewed.
