Absent quadriceps reflex with distant toe flexor response: An underrecognized neurological sign

Finger flexion response upon tapping the styloid process of the radius is a well-known phenomenon. It is referred as spread when there is brachioradialis response, and as an inverted brachioradialis reflex when only finger flexion is noted [1]. The latter has been associated with C5-C6 radiculomyelopathies [2].
