Two cases of subacute combined degeneration: magnetic resonance findings.
We report two cases of subacute combined degeneration. Both patients had undergone total gastrectomy. The chief complaints were numbness in both upper extremities in case 1 and numbness in both the upper and lower extremities and gait disturbance in case 2. The pain, temperature, and vibration senses of both patients were decreased. Laboratory examinations showed macrocytic anemia and a decreas...

متن کاملSubacute combined degeneration: clinical, electrophysiological, and magnetic resonance imaging findings.
OBJECTIVE Vitamin B12 deficiency is a systemic disease that often affects the nervous system. One of the most prevalent manifestations is subacute combined degeneration (SCD) of the spinal cord. To access the clinical, electrophysiological, and structural abnormalities associated with SCD, a study was conducted in nine patients. METHODS Clinical, electrophysiological (electroneurography, soma...
متن کامل[Subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord: MR findings].
The authors present the initial and follow-up MR findings in a patient with subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord, a complication of vitamin B12 deficiency, and a rare cause of demyelination of the dorsal and lateral columns of the spinal cord. Initial study showed high intensity in the dorsal columns of the cervical and thoracic spinal cord on T2-weighted image. Five months after t...
