White Matter Diseases YES, Multiple Sclerosis NO, Sjogren - Larsson Syndrome: Another Differential Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis

Abstract

Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome (SLS) is an inherited autosomal recessive neurocutaneous disorder with congenital ichthyosis, spastic diplegia or quadriplegia and mental retardation. We report a case of Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome with clinical profile (mental retardation, ichthyosis, spastic diplegia) and MRI findings such as seen in multiple sclerosis (MS). So this rare syndrome can be another differential diagnosis of MS.
