RESUMO
Locked-in syndrome is defined as quadriplegia and anarthria with the preservation of consciousness. Typically, locked-in syndrome is caused by an insult to the ventral pons secondary to trauma or vascular disease. Presented herein is a case of a locked-in syndrome with an initial MRI with no restricted diffusion and clinical deterioration over the course of four days. Repeat interval MRI demonstrated bilateral pontine ischemia.
