Acute infectious disorders of the spinal cord and its roots with gadolinium-DTPA enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging.

S Engelter¹, P Lyrer, E W Radu, A J Steck.

Abstract

We studied three patients with myelomeningoradiculitis caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, herpes zoster virus or cytomegalovirus infection. All patients underwent MRI of the spinal cord with gadolinium-DTPA and showed enhancing lesions of the spinal cord or nerve roots that correlated with clinical signs. Gadolinium-DTPA enhancement may visualize lesions that suggest an inflammation associated with blood-brain-barrier alteration and indicate the diagnosis before serological results are available.
