Abstract
• In recent years the name of Brown-Séquard has been assigned to syndromes caused by spinal cord damage differing widely in extension. On the basis of a review of more than 600 published cases, we propose that Brown-Séquard-plus syndromes be distinguished from the pure Brown-Séquard syndrome. This distinction is shown to be justified on clinical, anatomic, and historical grounds. Two case histories are reported herein to illustrate the essential differences between these syndromes.This publication has 34 references indexed in Scilit:
