Abstract | A 23-year-old woman with a 5-month history of systemic lupus erythematosus presented with sudden onset of numbness and weakness of both lower extremities accompanied by dysporia for 3 days. Physical examination showed there was paresthesia below the level of umbilicus, knee and tendon jerk were enhanced, and Babinski's sign and Chaddock's sign were positive in both lower extremities. MRI showed increased signal intensity of T2-weighted images of spinal cord (C3 to T12). Her symptoms improved after one course of methylprednisolone pulse therapy. |
