Abstrakt: THE MATERIAL which we have studied consists of 60 cases of injuries to the spinal cord in which sensory recovery was taking place and in which sensory examinations had been made several times, the last one in 1952.No attempt was made to examine for sensory recovery by tests other than those used in an ordinary neurological examination. Two-point discrimination was not studied, and neither an algesiometer nor an esthesiometer was used. Some of the cases had been described in the study of Boshes, Brown, and Crouch,1 but for the most part these cases have not been reported.Many studies have been made upon recovery of sensation after injury to the spinal cord in an attempt to discover the intraspinal pathways for sensations of different modalities and the form and position of dermatomes, and we have fallen into the same trap.Although it will be seen that we have
