Title: Thoracic myelopathy due to intraspinal rheumatoid nodules. Author: Sasaki S, Nakamura K, Oda H, Fukasawa K, Kurokawa T. Journal: Scand J Rheumatol; 1997; 26(3):227-8. PubMed ID: 9225882. Abstract: A fifty-six-year-old woman with classical rheumatoid arthritis had subacute onset of paraparesis due to thoracic epidural rheumatoid nodules.

There was a steady recovery after excision surgery.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
