RESUMEN
RESUMEN La mielitis transversa es una lesión de la médula espinal que causa déficit completo (sensitivo, motor y esfinteriano) desde el nivel en el cual se presenta. Existe una variante denominada longitudinalmente extensa, la cual en la imagen por resonancia magnética (RM) afecta a tres o más cuerpos vertebrales. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con un síndrome medular secundario a neurosífilis y deficiencia de ácido fólico con lesiones medulares extensas.
ABSTRACT
SUMMARY Transverse myelitis is the spinal cord injury that causes complete deficit (sensory and motor) from the level in which it is present, classically associated with the loss of sphincter control. There is a variant known as longitudinally extensive, which in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) affects three or more vertebral segments. We present the case of a patient with a medullary syndrome secondary to neurosyphilis with folate deficiency and extensive spinal cord injuries.
