Abstract

Primary HIV infection (PHI) is associated with various neurological disorders. However, acute transverse myelitis (ATM) complicating PHI has not been reported after the introduction of the combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). We encountered one patient with known PHI with clinical presentation of ATM. Treatment with cART and corticosteroids successfully improved symptoms, and no recurrence was noted after discontinuation of cART. In conclusion, concurrent use of cART and corticosteroids was effective against PHI accompanied by ATM and could be withdrawn after improvement of ATM.
