Partial acute transverse myelitis is a predictor of multiple sclerosis in children

open access: yesMultiple Sclerosis Journal, 2014
International audienceBackground: Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) in children is a rare and often severe disease for which there are few known prognostic factors, particularly the subsequent risk of multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis.Objectives: To ...

Post-varicella acute transverse myelitis

Infection, 1979
This report of a case of acute transverse myelitis, after otherwise uneventful varicella, further stresses the importance that the possibility of this relatively rare complication should be kept in mind in patients developing a paraplegic syndrome late in the course of the disease.

Neurophysiological studies in acute transverse myelitis

Journal of Neurology, 2000
A systematic evaluation of anterior horn cell, motor and sensory pathways is possible by electromyography (EMG), motor (MEPs) and somatosensory (SEPs) evoked potentials, respectively, which may provide valuable information on acute transverse myelitis (ATM).

Prognostic predictors of acute transverse myelitis

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1998
The role of clinical, MRI and neurophysiological parameters in predicting the outcome of acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is reported.Thirty-one patients with ATM were subjected to clinical, MRI, somatosensory and motor evoked potential studies in both upper and lower limbs and concentric needle electromyography.

The differential diagnosis of acute transverse myelitis

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2006
The clinical and paraclinical characteristics of acute transverse myelitis (ATM) were analyzed in 31 patients. In some patients there was clinical evidence of complete transection, in others of only partial lesions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the acute phase in the first group was normal, but showed cord atrophy subsequently.

Acute transverse myelitis.

The Journal of the Louisiana State Medical Society : official organ of the Louisiana State Medical Society, 1997
Acute transverse myelitis is a relatively uncommon neurological disease in which affected patients exhibit acute dehabilitating symptoms associated with the loss of spinal cord segment function. During January 1996, a 23-year-old black female college student, who had been previously healthy, presented to our clinic with acute onset of symptoms typical ...

Determinants of prognosis of acute transverse myelitis in children

Pediatrics International, 2003
Abstract Background : Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is a severe disorder; recovery requires several months and often leaves neurologic residua. To determine what features of patients with acute transverse myelitis significantly influence prognosis, the authors reviewed reports of ATM in Japanese children published in the last ...

[Acute transverse myelitis].

Neurologia i neurochirurgia polska, 2002
Acute transverse myelitis may be caused by many factors, however, in most cases the cause cannot be clinically found, which justifies the diagnosis of "Myelitis transversa acuta" or "myelopathia transversa acuta" in such cases. The disease is inflammatory spinal demyelination, differing morphologically from multiple sclerosis. Magnetic resonance is the

ACUTE SYPHILITIC TRANSVERSE MYELITIS

Archives of Dermatology and Syphilology, 1924
My attention was especially called to this rare condition by two cases observed and studied. At the time, I supposed it was an exceedingly rare complication of early syphilis, and this idea was rather confirmed by questioning colleagues as to their experience. However, I was surprised indeed on looking up the literature to see that it is by no means an
