Myelitogenic

In this respect, however, a certain variation is obvious as some viruses appear primarily as encephal- itogenic while others are almost purely myelitogenic.

We are led to think, therefore, that nerve substance which has been exposed to the action of 1 per cent phenol has been deprived to some extent of its toxic or myelitogenic action.

Dr. Stefofski, opined that Valeria’s quick symptom onset “strongly favors a vascular aetiology over immune mediated/inflammatory (definitely too soon for Gardasil or even for a remote preceding myelitogenic trigger).” He also noted that due to the lack of response to corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide, he doubted an autoimmune aetiology.
