Neurological deficits and recovery treatment over time.

Time	Neurological Deficits	Neuromotor Recovery Treatment
Month IV	Lower limb motor deficit (MRC 1/5 proximal and 0/5 distal), bilateral pyramidal syndrome (elastic hypertonia Ashworth 3, brisk DTR, absent SAR, positive Babinski sign bilateral, left Achilles tendon clonus), and inability to walk, but possible orthostatism for a short time with assisted support	physiotherapy, massage, kinetotherapy, pentoxifylline, gabapentin, baclofen, alfacalcidol, vitamin D and calcium supplements
Month VII
Month XII	Lower limb motor deficit (MRC 1/5 proximal and 0/5 distal), bilateral pyramidal syndrome (elastic hypertonia Ashworth 3, brisk DTR, absent SAR, positive Babinski sign bilateral, left Achilles tendon clonus), and inability to stand and walk

MRC: Medical Research Council scale; DTR: deep tendon reflexes; and SAR: superficial abdominal reflex.
