abstract="Although uncommon, electrical injuries are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. There have been several reports of neurological sequelae secondary to electrical injury; however, the neurophysiology is still not completely understood. These neurological complications pose the greatest risk for permanent disability. We present a case of acute-onset quadriplegia after high-voltage electrical injury without radiographic evidence. Two months after the injury, the patient went on to regain partial sensorimotor function. Only a few case reports in the literature exist describing neurological recovery after electrical burn-induced quadriplegia. These cases are reviewed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
