Two patients with acute transverse myelopathy in association with Epstein-Barr virus infection are described. Evidence of Epstein-Barr virus infection should be sought in any young patient with an acute neurological illness, even in the absence of the usual features of infectious mononucleosis. The cases described confirm previous reports that the prognosis in patients with neurological complications of this infection is generally good.
