Abstract:
Copper deficiency myelopathy (CDM) is a degenerative disease of the nervous system as a result of copper deficiency. It can affect the posterior cord, lateral cord, and peripheral nervous system to cause sensory ataxia, spastic paralysis, and peripheral nerve damage. Anemia and/or neutropenia are among accompanying abnormalities. CDM is so rare and little reported that there is a high probability of a miss diagnosis or misdiagnosis. In this article, we present the clinical data and diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with CDM, and reviewed relevant literature, in order to provide a reference for clinical workers.
