It also known as Brown-Sequard syndrome or partial spinal sensory syndrome
Hemisection of the spinal cord was first described in 1849
It is also called Brown-Sequard syndrome and hemisection of the spinal cord
It also known as hemisection of the spinal cord or partial spinal sensory syndrome
A partial transection of the spinal cord on either side is referred to as a hemisection. This condition can lead to a variety of neurological deficits, including loss of motor function and sensation on one side of the body, depending on the location of the injury. Hemisection can occur due to trauma, tumors, or other pathological conditions. The effects can vary significantly based on the specific spinal cord segments involved.
Membranes called meninges cover and protect the brain and spinal cord. The skull and spinal column also protect the brain and spinal cord, respectively. The spinal cord is made up by individual vertebrae.

Inflammation of the spinal cord is called Myelitis.
The nerves connected to the spinal cord are called spinal nerves.
Spinal cord therapy
hemisection anywhere in spinal cord, and the result is a mixed sensory deficit. you'll lose proprioception (two point discrimination) on the same side as the hemisection. you'll lose pain and temperature sense on the side opposite of the hemisection. depending on level in spinal cord, the effects will be different
Spinal cord infarction (sometimes called spinal stroke ) refers to injury to the spinal cord due to oxygen deprivation.
The spinal cord is protected by the vertebrae.
