Abstract :
Editorial: Patients with complete spinal cord injury (SCI) suffer irreversible loss of motor and sensory functions, and this brings in innumerable psychological and socio-economic burdens. In 2500 BC, Edwin Smith’s papyrus stated that SCI was an “ailment not to be treated”. Thousands of years since then, it appears most vividly that supportive care is the only treatment that can be provided to SCI patients.
