Portuguese term or phrase: hipostesia
A sua observação revela então, além da dor e das alterações de esfíncteres referidas, parésia dos membros inferiores mais acentuada à direita, sendo a marcha só possível com apoio (pé direito força de grau 0; perna direita força de 3.....) e hipostesia sobretudo dolorosa, mais evidente nos territórios L5 e S1 à direita.

Em conclusão: lesão grave multirradicular bilateral lombossagrada após traumatismo cirurgico, com pareparésia mais marcada à direita, hipostesia e nevralgia do membro inferior direito.


Can anyone confirm the translation for this term? I only know "Hipóstase", never heard of hipostesia, is it the same?

Thanks a million in advance!
