Anterior cord syndrome is a medical condition where the blood supply to the anterior portion of the spinal cord is interrupted. It is characterized by loss of motor function below the level of injury, loss of sensations carried by the anterior columns of the spinal cord (pain and temperature), and preservation of sensations carried by the posterior columns (fine touch and proprioception).
