Objective: Myelitis is a monophasic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the spinal cord and brain, often of unknown origin. It is characterized with motor, sensory, and autonomic symptoms. In the childhood age group, it is most frequently seen as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and transverse myelitis. In this study, the patients who presented to our clinic with myelitis were evaluated.
