Tropical Spastic Paraparesis/HTLV-I-Associated Myelopathy in Brazil

Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes and Human Retrovirology, 1996
Brazil, the largest Latin American country, is highly heterogeneous, both demographically and socioeconomically. The overall human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) seroprevalence among blood donors is approximately 0.45%. These rates are highly variable, from 0 to 1.8%.

Tropical spastic paraparesis in Kerala.

Neurology India, 2004
Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (TSP) is an uncommon myeloneuropathy with an insular geographic distribution. In 1985, Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1) was reported to be a possible etiological factor. We did an epidemiological, clinical and virological study of 25 cases of TSP.

The significance of immune disorder in tropical spastic paraparesis

Human Antibodies, 1999
The reports of the occurrence of HTLV-1 infection and/or HTLV-1 associated myelopathy (HAM/tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP) in patients with certain organ-specific and nonorgan-specific autoimmune diseases prompted us to assess the relationship between TSP and humoral autoimmunity.

HTLV-I, infective dermatitis, and tropical spastic paraparesis

Molecular Neurobiology, 1994
Since human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV-I) was identified in 1980 as causing human disease, it has been etiologically associated with adult T-cell lymphoma/leukemia (ATL) and tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP). More recently, several new diseases have been reported in association with this virus, including infective dermatitis of Jamaican children,

[Tropical spastic paraparesis in a non tropical region].

Revista de neurologia, 2016
Human T-lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1) associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a prevalent disease in certain tropical regions endemic for HTLV-1, being a rare entity in areas such as Europe and North America.We report two new cases of HAM/TSP in Caucasians, native from Galicia, Spain. Serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis,

Tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV-I associated myelopathy

Molecular Neurobiology, 1994
In 1985 we had the first indication that human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV-I) was the possible etiological agent of a chronic myelopathy that seemed to be peculiar to the tropics and that is now known as endemic tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP).
