    Abstract:
    We describe a patient with acute transverse myelitis as the first symptom of systemic lupus erythematosus who was successfully treated with cyclophosphamide and prednisone. The literature on transverse myelitis is reviewed and its clinical presentation, diagnosis, therapy and prognosis are discussed. A new therapeutic approach involving cyclophosphamide and prednisone is proposed.
