Abstract
|
|
|
A 5-year-old girl developed acute paraplegia, associated with sensory impairment and bowel and urinary dysfunction after an URI. MRI showed equivocal diffuse spinal cord swelling below T10 level in the acute stage of disease. Acute transverse
myelitis
was diagnosed based on the clinical presentations and MRI findings.
The patient had poor recovery and two months later, a follow-up MRI disclosed a severe diffuse atrophic cnange of spinal cord in the affected segments.
To our knowledge, this is the first case showing the sequele of ATM seen in vivo in our country.
