Abstract

Balo's concentric sclerosis (BCS) is a rare inflammatory demyelinating disease of central nervous system, pathologically characterized by alternate bands of demyelination and preserved myelin tissue.

We report a case of 26-year-old female with BCS involving bilateral thalami, with typical MRI appearance.
