• Cause of Death: Tabes Dorsalis. Tabes dorsalis is a slow degeneration of the sensory neurons that carry information. The degenerating nerves are in the dorsal columns (posterior columns) of the spinal cord (the portion closest to the back of the body) and carry information that help maintain a person's sense of position (proprioception), vibration, and discriminative touch.
Overview
Syphilitic myelopathy is a complication of untreated syphilis that involves muscle weakness and abnormal sensations.
Alternative Names: Tabes dorsalis
Causes:
Syphilitic myelopathy is a form of neurosyphilis, which is a complication of late or tertiary syphilis infection. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted, infectious disease. For information on the disease, see: .
The condition called tabes dorsalis includes syphilitic myelopathy and additional symptoms of nerve damage.
The infection damages the tissue of the spinal cord and peripheral nervous tissue. This causes decreased muscle function (myelopathy), including progressive weakness of the legs, arms, and other areas. Loss of function may eventually result in paralysis.
Coordination difficulties contribute to problems walking. There are often changes in sensation, including painful paresthesia (abnormal sensations), which are also referred to as "lightning pains."
In syphilitic myelopathy, the muscle problems are accompanied by other symptoms characteristic of nervous system damage caused by syphilis.
