Peripheral late reactivation of a previously typical monofocal Baló’s concentric sclerosis lesion
2015
We report a 41-year-old woman with rapidly progressive left hemiparesis, revealing an inflammatory reactivation of a previously known parietal Balo’s concentric sclerosis lesion. The first attack occurred five years before. After a slow recovery following high-dose steroid infusions the patient stabilized. Because of recurrent ataxia and left hemiparesis a new magnetic resonance imaging was performed showing an extension of the initial lesion with a peripheral gadolinium enhancement on T1-weighted images. Such a reactivation pattern of an isolated Balo’s concentric sclerosis lesion, occurring some years later, is described for the first time.
