Main Article Content
Abstract
The brain, optic nerves, cerebellum, spinal cord and peripheral nerves may be affected by Vitamin B12 deficiency(VBD). The spinal cord is often affected first and exclusively giving rise to one of the classic neurological syndromes .the chief obstacle to carly diagnosis is the lack of parallelism that may exist between the hematological and neurologic signs. Prognosis depends on a number of factors but most importantly on the duration of symptoms before onset of treatment and is better when the gait disturbance has been present for less than three months.
