Zusammenfassung:ADEM is a monophasic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, characterized by scattered focal or multifocal (disseminated) inflammation of the brain and/or spinal cord. A number of variants of ADEM have been described, namely, tumefactive demyelination (Marburg disease), acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis (AHLE), Balo's concentric sclerosis, and focal or site-restricted forms (e.g., optic neuritis, myelitis, and cerebellitis).
