Nitrous Oxide-induced B12 Deficiency Presenting With Myeloneuropathy

Abstract

Nitrous oxide abuse is an uncommon cause of subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord. This is a case of a 27-year-old female exotic dancer who presented with clinical and laboratory manifestations of subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord secondary to nitrous oxide-induced B12 deficiency from chronic whippets consumption.
