Optic neuritis: visual disturbance, painful eye movement 4. cerebellar and motor syn: bowel and bladder dysfunction MS的病理基础是:immune-related demyelinating disease: myelin formed by oligodendrocytes undergoes an inflammatory reaction that impairs impulse transmission in axons in the CNS 常常是exacerbation and remission交替, 2 or more sensory or motor systems are affected in separate attacks. The only cranial or spinal nerve affected is the optic nerve (because all of the myelin sheathes of its axons are formed oligodendrocytes) MRI: scattered, periventricular, plaque-like lesions CSF finding: ↑ IgG (“oligoclonal band” on PAGE) Case: 34-yr female, diplopia; clumsiness of left hand and right foot; clumsiness of right hand before but resolved spontenously
