Subacute Combined Degeneration in a Young Female Patient After Sleeve Gastrectomy.

ABSTRACT

The neurological symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency are variable but primarily consist of combined spinal sclerosis, peripheral neuropathy, and dementia. Movement disorders and cerebellar ataxia are reported less frequently. We present a case of a young female patient with vitamin B12 deficiency after sleeve gastrectomy, resulting in subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord (SACD).
