مستخلص: The symptoms of transverse myelitis, an acute demyelinating inflammatory condition of the spinal cord, include motor, sensory, and bowel-bladder dysfunction that can develop suddenly or gradually. Several etiologies, such as bacterial, fungal, or viral infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases, vascular problems, and environmental variables, can cause it. The identification of copper deficiency myelopathy (CDM) as a curable cause of non-compressive inflammatory myelopathy has only occurred recently. Patients frequently present with sensory complaints and a spastic gait. The neurological disease may exist independently of the hematologic signs. Only a few cases of copper myelopathy in peripartum women have been documented. Given that hypocupric myelopathy is a treatable cause of debilitating paraplegia, maintaining clinical vigilance will be crucial in minimizing neurological sequelae, as demonstrated in this case report.
