Abstract
After 3 weeks of daily headache, a 28-year-old, otherwise healthy woman was admitted to the emergency department with a first-time generalized seizure. CT showed a left frontal mass with perifocal edema. Brain MRI raised the suspicion of cerebral lymphoma. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed mononuclear pleocytosis of 14 cells/μL without malignant cells, normal protein levels, and absence of oligoclonal bands. FET PET/MRI of the lesion showed FET characteristics of inflammatory disease, and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis was suggested as diagnosis. Final histopathological results from brain biopsy confirmed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
