Abstract
Subacute combined degeneration (SCD) of the spinal cord is a treatable and potentially reversible myelopathy that primarily affects the dorsal and lateral columns. Its causes directly and indirectly involve vitamin B12 deficiency, and symptoms range from mild paresthesias to paraplegia and incontinence.
