Quando a apresentação clínica de uma mielopatia devida a deficiência de vitamina B12 não afeta apenas a medula espinal, mas também os nervos periféricos, o nervo óptico e o cérebro. É comumente referida como “degeneração combinada subaguda”. As manifestações neurológicas reconhecidas incluem uma mielopatia com uma neuropatia associada, neuropatia óptica e menos frequentemente encefalopatia. Essa deficiência é geralmente causada por uma dieta vegetariana restritiva, desnutrição, síndromes de má absorção, doença congênita, gastrectomia ou outras doenças do trato gastrointestinal. Também pode ser induzida pela inalação excessiva de óxido nitroso. | |||
