摘要
A man in his 30s presented with one month of progressive bilateral numbness and paralysis in the lower extremities. He had a history of pulmonary tuberculosis two years earlier, which resolved after treatment with isoniazid, rifampicin, and ethambutol. Physical examination showed hypoesthesia below the level of T10; grade I strength in the bilateral iliopsoas, quadriceps femoris, and tibialis anterior muscles; and bilateral lower extremity hyperreflexia.
