    Author: Ballweg GP, Donnenfeld H, Chusid JG.
    Journal: Childs Brain; 1976; 2(3):195-201. PubMed ID: 971639.
    Abstract:
    Rapid onset over several days of a complete transverse myelopathy occurred 3 1/2 months after completion of mediastinal radiation for Hodgkin's disease in a 12-year-old boy. Postmortem examination revealed low cervical and high thoracic radiation myelopathy. The name "subacute radiation myelopathy" is proposed for this type of rapidly developing myelopathy.
