Abstract
In the spectrum of post-electrocution episodes, Charcotâ??s paralysis is a mysterious esoteric entity. Since it is an unusual form of shock, it is usually found in a small percentage of victims. Ritenour et al describe several ways in which electric shock affects the human body. A series of normal tests and a negative radiological image seem to validate the diagnosis, while a strict observation relieves symptoms. In this case report, we present a young guy who developed a monoparesis of the right lower extremity that resolved spontaneously after electrocution, was thoroughly probed, and was retrospectively identified as a case of Charcot paralysis. In a nut shell, clinical rarity such as this requires a high level of suspicion to begin with continuous monitoring and symptomatic treatment to treat the disease.
