case_images: The right bronchial artery had a separate origin from the thoracic aorta, with a diameter of 3.2 mm (figure 1).

case_images: MRI brain showed no evidence of acute brain infarct, whereas, in MRI of the spine, T2-weighted images demonstrated high signal area in anterolateral spinal cord segment T4-T6, with subtle diffusion restriction on diffusion-weighted imaging and restricted diffusion on axial apparent diffusion coefficient, suggestive of an ischaemic event involving anterolateral spinal cord segment T4-T6 (figures 2 and 3).
case_images: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at T4 level showing diffusion restriction (hyperintense signal).
