Vol. 2, Article 3 Hart et al. Transverse Myelitis Myelitis is an uncommon but well-described complication of SLE. It can be a presenting sign of SLE. The rapid clinical deterioration and imaging findings of edema within the spinal cord are similar to those seen in transverse myelitis of other etiologies. Outcome varies, with about half of SLE cases of transverse myelitis reported to have complete recovery, 30% with partial recovery, and 20% with no recovery (4). A. B. C. Figure 6. Myelitis in SLE. A woman in her late 30s present with acute onset paraplegia 6 years after the diagnosis of SLE. She was treated with cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids but failed to regain any significant lower extremity motor function. Sagittal T1-weighted image (A) is unremarkable. After intravenous gadolinium administration, sagittal T1-weighted image (B) shows enhancement in the lower thoracic spinal cord (arrow). Corresponding high signal intensity is seen on the sagittal T2-weighted image (C). Focal White Matter Lesions Small areas of T2 prolongation in cerebral white matter are common in SLE. The correlation with clinical signs and symptoms of CNS disease is unclear (5). Most likely these are related to chronic changes in the brain rather than an acute event. However, in the patient with an acute presentation, diffusion-weighted imaging can be very helpful in distinguishing small, acute infarcts from chronic changes. The pathologic basis of these white matter lesions is also unclear. These are not usually due to an underlying vasculitis. Despite SLE often being included in lists of cerebral vasculitides, few SLE patients have true vasculitis. Rather, SLE is often accompanied by a bland, small vessel vasculopathy. In our experience, small areas of T2 hyperintensity are very common in SLE patients and are most often seen in subcortical white matter.

Both indicate spinal cord involvement by some pathological event: myelopathy is a more inclusive term that does not imply an aetiological factor while myelitis should be restricted to inflammatory diseases of the spinal cord. Myelopathy includes myelitis; myelitis produces a myelopathy. Any process that impairs the function of the spinal cord produces a myelopathy; in the common use, however, the term is usually employed with an adjective such as "compressive", "degenerative" or "congenital". Despite the fact that conditions such as spinal cord tumours or hydrosyringomyelia produce symptoms of myelopathy they are usually considered as specific, separate entities. On the other hand, "myelitis" is frequently a sort of wastebasket in which all myelopathies of unknown or undetectable aetiology are included. With these caveats in mind an attempt at classification can be made. MYELITIS Viral infections Usually of acute onset due to viruses that affect the grey matter (poliomyelitis). Herpes, coxackie and polio viruses are the most common agents.
