    Author: Goldish D, Massagli TL.
    Journal: PM R; 2018 Mar; 10(3):320-324. PubMed ID: 28797832.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: Evolving subacute myelopathies have many possible etiologies. This is a report of a patient who presented with progressive paresthesias, proprioceptive loss, and gait disturbance with acute myelitis seen on magnetic resonance imaging initially concerning for transverse myelitis. However, she also had vitamin B12 deficiency, and her clinical course ultimately suggested a diagnosis more compatible with subacute combined degeneration. The clinical features, laboratory, and imaging findings and prognosis of the 2 disorders are compared. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: V.
