We report a patient presenting with myelitis after respiratory symptoms. A high level of antibodies to influenza A virus was measured in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and the serum/CSF antibody ratio was 1.7, suggesting specific antibody production in the central nervous system. Magnetic resonance imaging of the spinal canal showed a contrast-enhanced swelling on the cervical medulla. Su...

متن کاملDiffuse myelitis associated with rubella vaccination.

In one patients the time between vaccination and development of neurological signs was rather too short to indicate definitely a causal relation. Nevertheless, the chronological association is suggestive, and other observations of such an associat...
متن کاملTransverse myelitis associated with chronic hepatitis C.
An infectious etiology is one of the postulated mechanisms for autoimmune diseases. An emergence of autoimmune phenomena associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been reported. Transverse myelitis is an inflammatory disease of the spinal vasculature attributed to viral infections and to autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus and the antiphospholipid syndrome. A ...
