  • Title: Spinal artery steal syndrome in Paget's disease of bone.
    Author: Porrini AA, Maldonado Cocco JA, García Morteo O.
    Journal: Clin Exp Rheumatol; 1987; 5(4):377-8. PubMed ID: 3440335.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of vertebral Paget's disease with paraplegia and no evidence of spinal cord compression, in which the neurological condition improved dramatically after treatment with calcitonin. Spinal cord vascular steal syndrome is suggested as another mechanism responsible for this neurologic complication.
