Abstract EN
A healthy woman undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) developed acute transverse myelitis (ATM) following the use of Buserelin.
ATM has a multifactorial etiology and may develop as a result of the activation of immune responses.
Infectious agents have been postulated as possible triggers of an immune response (Sá, 2009).
Gonadotropin-releasing agonists may have a similar role and trigger the acceleration of preexisting disease by the activation of immune responses (Ho et al., 1995, and Umesaki et al., 1999).
