Transverse myelitis is a rare disease characterized by inflammation of the spinal cord. These findings may present with findings related to primary motor neuron damage or with nonspecific findings, such as loss of muscle strength and sensation in the extremities. Herein, we presented a 21-year-old female patient with transverse myelitis with complaints of muscle weakness and urinary incontinence who was diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation after lumbar imaging and whose complaints did not improve after surgery.
