Abstract

A very unusual neurological disorder known as Brown-Séquard Syndrome (BSS) may develop when the spinal cord is severed or damaged on one side. Ipsilateral motor paralysis, loss of proprioception, and a lack of pain and temperature sensitivity on the opposite side are hallmarks of this disorder's distinctive pattern of neurological impaired functions. A 45-year-old man with a history of severe injuries who acquired Brown-Séquard Syndrome is the subject of this case report.
