Highlights
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized pathologically by demyelination and subsequent axonal degeneration[1,2]
The 2017 International McDonald multiple sclerosis diagnostic panel proposed modifications to improve diagnostic accuracy, simplify application of the diagnostic criteria, and enhance timeliness of the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, reducing the misdiagnosis. These diagnostic criteria perform well in identifying children with multiple sclerosis and they are applied in children younger than 11 years at presentation without clinical features of Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) [6]
One of the rarest correlations is that between MS and seventh nerve palsy [8,9,10].Peripheral facial palsy is a common disease in children
