Myelopolyradiculoneuritis with lesions predominantly across the spinal cord

Acute primary myelitis is an inflammatory disease of the spinal cord. Transverse and multifocal myelitis is distinguished, differing in the size and number of foci of inflammation in individual segments of the spinal cord. Acute transverse myelitis is considered as a separate nosological form in the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases. The introduction of such modern paraclinical examination methods as electroneuromyography (ENMG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), make it possible to visualize the morphological substrate of the disease, to better understand the nature and mechanisms of its development.
