The peculiarity of presentation of
RS3PE syndrome
in a patient with a central cord injury is due to the difficulty of identifying it due to the superposition of clinical manifestations together with the lack of knowledge of it, being in the absence of this lesion, an easily diagnosable pathology, do not require excessive complementary tests, and with an excellent prognosis after the appropriate early treatment.
