Restless legs syndrome related to hemorrhage of a thoracic spinal cord cavernoma.
CONCLUSION/CLINICAL RELEVANCE: We hypothesize a possible involvement of the diencephalospinal pathway in the patient's RLS pathophysiology. A systematic study of focal lesions associated with RLS may contribute to improving our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this condition. The frequency of RLS associated with lesions of the spinal cord might be underestimated. Clinicians should be aware of spinal cord lesion-related RLS, especially as efficient treatments are available. PMID: 28899286 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
